The King of the Night’s darkest hour Johnny Carson and the Kennedy Assassination

On January 31, 1968, New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison appeared on the Tonight Show to discuss his investigation into US government involvement in the assassination of John F. Kennedy. (Listen to the archived tape of this telecast at “Johnny Carson interviews Jim Garrison”, Parts One and Two, or at Garrison on “The Tonight Show” with Johnny Carson.)

Over the course of 90 minutes, the smiles and yucks went silent. Carson, America’s chuckling nighttime buddy, everybody’s friend, was the assassin. He badgered, belittled, and mocked Garrison, repeatedly interrupting Garrison as he made an impassioned plea to the American people to question the official story of the JFK assassination.
When Garrison attempted to show the photograph of the infamous “Three Tramps” (still unidentified mystery men who were arrested behind the Grassy Knoll and marched through Dealey Plaza, likely members of the assassination team), Carson made sure America would not see it. He yanked Garrison’s arm aside, and cut the cameras.
Garrison later mused:
“Why had I been debriefed in advance so that Carson could be apprised of my likely answers? Why had Carson pulled my arm away so that the photographs were out of camera range? And why had the director and the control room switched the camera so that the photographs could not be seen? The only reasonable, realistic explanation, I found myself concluding, was control.
“Some long-cherished illusions of mine about the great free press in our country underwent a painful reappraisal during this period. The restraint and respect for justice one might expect from the press . . . did not exist”.
As noted by Maureen Farrell, the “unholy alliance between the media and the government,” in covering up government crimes, was evident that night:
“The function of the Warren Commission was to make the American people feel that the [JFK assassination] had been looked into so that there would be no further inquiries,” Garrison told an incredulous Carson.
“I just can’t understand how you think that these men think they can get away with it or for what reason they would do it,” Carson later responded.
By 9:00 the next morning, Garrison had received more than 2,000 telegrams from district attorneys across America, who felt that Carson’s “nervous antagonism,” was a sign that Garrison was onto something. Feeling the need to apologize for Carson’s demeanor (which was nevertheless polite and jovial by today’s shout-fest standards), NBC sent out thousands of form letters saying, “The Johnny seen on TV that night was not the Johnny we all know and love. He had to play the devil’s advocate, because that makes for a better program.”
Carson was furious about NBC’s letter, and promised never to allow Garrison on his program again.
It is no surprise that today, as mainstream corporate media is flooded with “happy” Johnny Carson memories and magnificent tomes about how the charming Carson “epitomized the goodness of middle America,” the Garrison interview—the one glaring moment that exposed Carson as a peevish, patronizing, gatekeeping servant of larger forces continues to be studiously avoided.
Times, and the historical facts, have fully vindicated the late Garrison. Oliver Stone’s film JFK, which included an amusing version of the Carson interview (Stone depicted his fictional Garrison protagonist being badgered by an obnoxious talk show host named “Johnny Johnson,” played by John Laroquette.)
Here we find something to truly mourn: Johnny Carson, on that night in 1968, had the power to change the world. He chose to use that power to destroy a courageous whistleblower, kill truth, and keep America naïve and stupid.
As one television critic wrote of Carson, “he rode his droll detachment and bemused self-effacement through wars and assassinations, riots and Watergate.” But Carson, like many other powerful public figures and Hollywood celebrities, did little to address these serious events, except to provide water cooler humor and lampoons (ultimately giving birth to brain-addling sound-bite entertainment politics, epitomized by Jon Stewart, Jay Leno’s Tonight Show, Saturday Night Live, etc.), and worse.
Theerre’s Johnny.

Never knew about this...

Thanx

Jim Garrison couldn't get the jury to buy his case. Maybe this is the reason:

edit: The jury blew his case off as conspiracy theory. At the time I never realized why.

"I only wish the press would allow our case to stand
or fall on its merits in court. It appears that
certain elements of the mass media have an active
interest in preventing this case from ever
coming to trial at all and find it necessary to
employ against me every smear device in the book. "




Jim Garrison (1921- 1995)

Born November 20, 1921, in Knoxville, Iowa, Earling Carothers Garrison - known as "Jim" to friends and family - was raised in New Orleans. At age 19, one year before Pearl Harbor, he joined the army. In 1942, he was sent to Europe, where he volunteered to fly spotter planes over the front lines. Following the war, he attended law school at Tulare, joined the FBI, and served as a special agent in Seattle and Tacoma. After growing bored with his agency assignments, he returned to New Orleans to practice law. He served as an assistant district attorney from 1954 to 1958. He helped crack down on prostitution, tax malfeasance and racketeering in New Orleans but was a controversial figure.

In 1961, Garrison decided to run for district attorney on a platform openly hostile to then-New Orleans Mayor Victor Schiro. To the surprise of many, he was elected without any major political backing. He was 43 years old and had been district attorney for less than two years when Kennedy was killed. "I was an old-fashioned patriot," he writes in "On the Trail of the Assassins," (Sheridan Square Press, NY), "a product of my family, my military experience, and my years in the legal profession. I could not imagine then that the government would ever deceive the citizens of this country."

I am one of those older folks who believes someone in our government killed Kennedy. I bet George. H. W. Bush could tell us who.

I believe Clay Shaw was guilty but the news media destroyed Jim Garrison's trial.

Same belief, someone in gov for sure but mob driven methinks, bobby was cracking the whip at the mob, another facet hover(dick sucker f.b.i ) hated the Kennedy's and Robert in particular. Remember jfk was catholic and that went sideways with many also.

Mob and gov (not all, but some with stroke that were in the pocket of the mob and enjoyed perks) did it.

Imho!

Then again Jackie may have got tired of john sticking his dick is stray tang. ;)

And don't discount the CFR:

http://www.silverbearcafe.com/private/12.10/jfk.html



A special word about the Council on Foreign Relations role in the 1963 Coup d’Etat and cover up: no other organization has been more responsible for the murder and cover up of John Kennedy than the CFR. Elite CFR members such as Allen Dulles, Nelson Rockefeller and George Herbert Walker Bush were probably sponsors of the JFK assassination. Certainly leadership CFR members such as Allen Dulles, John J. McCloy, and Gerald Ford played the most critical roles in the Warren Commission farce. Add in cover up roles played by Nelson Rockefeller (CFR), Henry Kissinger (CFR), McGeorge Bundy (CFR), Nicholas Katzenbach (CFR), Jack Valenti (CFR), Bill Moyers (CFR), William Coleman (CFR) James Reston NY Times (CFR), Anthony Lewis NY Times (CFR), Dan Rather CBS (CFR), Peter Jennings (CFR), Daniel Schorr (CFR), Kenneth Gilmore Readers’ Digest (CFR), Stephen Rosenfeld Washington Post (CFR), Bobbie Ray Inman (CFR), ... the list is almost endless. Note two things: 1) they are the key establishment players of BOTH major political parties spanning decades 2) their power and influence is directly proportional to the fantastic whoppers they tell about in the 1963 Coup d’Etat. For the older CFR members it is a case of PARTICIPATION and COVER UP in the JFK assassination. For the younger ones such as George Will (CFR), Charles Krauthammer (CFR), David Gergen (CFR), John Segenthaler (CFR), Michael Beschloss (CFR) it is a case of WILLFUL IGNORANCE as they still push the Big Lie. Note: Chris Matthews of Hardball, another willfully ignorant man, is close friends with Richard Haass, current president of CFR. I have never seen the highly acclaimed political guru Michael Barone, and Bilderberger attendee, ever say anything credible on the JFK assassination.

Hi all. Johnny Carson treated Garrison very badly that night. Garrison wrote about it in his book "On the trail of the Assassins."

NBC and the other networks diligently supported the coverup. Rival network CBS destroyed some 70 hours of footage taken in the aftermath of the assassination, including interviews with important witnesses, to prevent early researcher Mark Lane from accessing them for a documentary he planned to make in 1967, according to Lane's book "A Citizens Dissent".

This is consistent with the information presented at the video here:

http://gold-silver.us/forum/showthread.php?81470-One-of-the-best-vids-ever-JFK-to-911-is-a-rich-man-s-trick. I'm getting another part of the picture here. Johnny Carson is giving Garrison significant pushback. It is almost as if he is defending the conspirators against the facts Garrison is presenting. I'm getting a view of Carson I never had before. I always considered him an entertainer, a comedian. Now he comes off as a lawyer/politician. What I see is confirmation of my view that the money power controls everybody and everything. If you want to present the truth that they don't want to be known, or if you oppose them in important areas, you will be marginalized here, as Carson is trying to do to Garrison. The question I have is why is Carson doing this. The answer is obvious. Carson has a high value career. He probably didn't have to think too hard when he was told that he could not make it easy for Garrison to present his case. This interview was done in 1968. The first time I heard most of this information was in the video linked above. Carsn, and everybody else who valued their careers challenged any independent investigation of the JFK murder. Carson's hostility demonstrates one thing to methat is about how the money power controls everything: Carson is a career person. He's doing what is good for his career in this interview--not what is important in establishing the truth. Just demonstrates that if you control the flow of money, you can get away with murder--lots of it.

It's also worth noting that the bosses of the three major TV networks at the time were David Sarnoff, William Paley and Leonard Goldenson, all Jewish and probably staunch Zionists.

Also, the idea of setting up the Warren Commission was first floated on the day Oswald was assassinated by Eugene Rostow, without doubt a staunch Zionist, via a phone call to LBJ aide Bill (get that bubbletop off unless its raining) Moyers:

No. Johnny just wanted to make sure he didn't get a bullet in his head...or drown in his swimming pool...or have his car lose their brakes and end up in the Pacific Ocean.

America is naive and stupid even with the truth out there. Just look at 9/11. We don't need Johnny to tell us what happened on that and most still believe the whitewashed 9/11 commission report.

Johnny was not about to end his career either which would have happened if he did not follow the orders of his masters of the Tribe

[Uncle Salty]

I listened to the whole thing and I thought that Jim Garrison did a great job.

He made a great case and Johnny looked like the stubborn fool.
