2024-07-2029 mincon-sara-cy theoriesEpisode 26: JFK - The Jim Garrison Hit Piece & His RebuttalHypnosis? Jailbirds? Truth serum? Lie detector tests? Psychopathic personalities? Blackmail photos? Bribes? 😬 On June 19, 1967, NBC aired a special titled "The JFK Conspiracy: The Case of Jim Garrison." This is portrayed in Oliver Stone's JFK when Jim Garrison's character says something like, "At least the people watching Laugh In tonight won't hate me." As hit pieces go, it's a doozy. Garrison in turn received about 25 minutes to go on NBC and offer his rebuttal. Links:https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0247436/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8EfI4XoqxU&t=1s...
