Breaking News: Oliver Stone Used Fake Oswald Handbills - Twice

[Fred Litwin]

I have been working with Steve Roe and Paul Hoch on this story for months. Oliver Stone used a fake Oswald handbill in his film JFK. That is fine because it was just a fictional film. But he also used a fake Oswald handbill in his so-called documentary series - JFK: Destiny Betrayed.

The handbills that Oswald gave out on the street in New Orleans were NOT stamped with the 544 Camp Street -- he only stamped them with his home address or with his P.O. Box.

Here are the four parts to our story:

Uh, big deal? This is one more example of people ALWAYS worrying about the minutiae of this case without stepping back to look at the big picture. And the big picture is this - Oswald was led by others to do this purely to set him up for later in the year. He was led to act like a Communist while still wearing his Marine Corps ring. He was led to be hired at the book building. He was led to the theater where he'd be arrested. And he blurted out the truth - that he was nothing but a patsy. And he still had his ring on. You know, the America-hating Commie leftie wearing a military ring that represents all that's right with America. Talk about contradictions.

Not sure who needs to hear this but the 1991 film, ‘JFK’, is a Hollywood movie, not a documentary.

There’s no requirement or expectation that movies or novels based on historical events be 100% accurate.

Doesn’t change the fact that the 544 Camp St address appeared on some of Oswald’s handbills. It was significant because that address had been associated with anti-Castro organizations.

Have you not read any of my blog post? Oswald did NOT stamp 544 Camo street on any of his handbills. NONE!

He only stamped them with his home address or his P.O. Box.

From the HSCA report:

”The address had been stamped with a home printing kit in the same manner Oswald had stamped other literature with his alias "A. J. Hidell" or "L. H. Oswald," (11) indicating it was by Oswald's own hand that the 544 Camp Street address was printed on the pamphlet”.
