Vincent Bugliosi's books about the Kennedy assassination, Reclaiming history, was scheduled to be made into a miniseries. DiEugenio details the problems with Bugliosi's book, explores the cooperation of the mainstream press in concealing these many faults, and how the film eventually adapted from that book-- Parkland-- displays the same imbalance that the book does. He examines the connections between Washington and Hollywood, as well as the CIA influence in the film colony today.
