And we just said, there's so much bad journalism. in major news organizations about the Kennedy assassination, that we need to have a presence there because we know that there's false statements, erroneous statements, misleading statements, a whole ridiculous discourse about conspiracy theories that doesn't interest us because we're researchers and historians.

And so we just wanted to have a presence in the continuing discussion of JFK's assassination. For me, it's a great story. I pay attention to it because it's very important in American history. It's of continuing interest to lots and lots of readers. And there's key questions and issues that are unresolved. And subject, you know, the ripe subject for good investigative reporting.

So to me, it's a very natural story to gravitate to. I like its scale. It's important. And we know that it's important. President Biden issued an order about it earlier this year. President Trump has been talking about JFK files. So, you know, it's a big deal in American culture. It always has been. So to me, it's a very appropriate subject for an investigative reporter.

Yeah. So just to back up a little bit. To understand the context of what Biden did last June, you need to understand the story of the JFK Records Act. And a lot of people don't know this, which is why I want to go into some detail about it. Congress passed the JFK Records Act in 1992 amid the controversy about Oliver Stone's movie.

And what Congress said was, we're not going to reinvestigate the assassination, but we are going to make all of the government's records on the subject available to the public. in the controversy over Stone's movie, and people pointed fingers and said, oh, Oliver Stone, you're a bad boy. How dare you question our government and our sacred Warren Commission?
