Ep. 247 – Christopher & Eric’s True Crime TV Club Serves Up “False Witness”

Deep in the You Tube vaults lurks this authoritative and impeccably reported takedown of one of the worst lies ever told about the Kennedy assassination. FALSE WITNESS, adapted from the groundbreaking non-fiction book by Patricia Lambert, responds to Oliver Stone’s preposterous blockbuster JFK with a hail of hard truths. The fact that it enjoys a fraction of the audience of that odious film is just one more injustice offered up by the deeply strange story of deranged New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison and his baseless hunt for a homegrown conspiracy to kill the president — made up entirely of homegrown homosexuals. This is just one of the injustices about this story Christopher and Eric are determined to correct. Conspiracy Weary Month’s final pairing goes out with a loud wet bang — the kind a truth bomb makes when it goes off on a pile of conspirapoo.
