[…] have identified me as a victim of inter-gang terrorist rivalry. I believed at the time (as I still do) that the incident was the result of a conspiracy to murder initiated by the Security Service (MI5) and with me as the intended victim.

[…] and beliefs of reporters and pundits mirrors that of the political and military establishment. The crucial propaganda function of the press was achieved not through any mass conspiracy to deceive the public but through ‘an ideology of news reporting that incorporates a set of routines, constraint, expectations – and myths.’ (p.200) Let a journalist […]
[…] the model for ‘Mr. X’, the character played by Donald Sutherland in the most risible scene in Oliver Stone’s JFK.
