Best Current Introduction to the JFK Case.......2003-12-13
If you have an open mind, you will be amazed.......2002-02-10
The pictures and documentation of the phyiscal evidence and the efforts to duplicate what is told to us as truth by the FBI and other investigative groups prove that without a doubt, we haven't been told the entire truth about what happened. Just the study and comparison of the wound analysis and ballistics PROVES that the whole premise that Lee Oswald did it alone is untenable.
Using the Scientific Method, one is able to prove or disprove predictions based on facts learned from trying to create and recreate results, and then using different variables to learn even more information. Galanor's "Document 24" is just one of many proofs that the evidence had to be altered because it could not be duplicated--the Sixth floor window is 60 feet from ground level, while the tower that was used to attempt to duplicate the shots from the "sixth floor elevation" at the Army's Aberdeen Proving Grounds (Warren Commission Exhibit 579) is only 30 feet high. There are many other startly examples in the book.
This is without question one of the best books on the JFK assassination you could read. It helps to bring together a lot of the facts that have been missed by others, and it powerfully illustrates that much of what we have been told as fact is ridiculous. If your views are those that support the findings of the Warren Commission, this book will shatter them. If your views support the idea that Oswald acted alone, the evidence in this book will show you how that position is no longer valid, simply because that which is purported to have been done by "Oswald" could not be duplicated.
Mr. Galanor should be commended for his interest and study of the records on which his work is based--obviously very few have devoted as much time with the keen eye for detail he has shown in finding much within the Warren Commission materials disproving their own positions after all these years. Harold Weisberg and Mark Lane were two of the first, and Galanor adds much to this ever-increasing long list of inaccurate information sold to the American people as fact.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to settle the doubts in their minds about whether or not we have ever been told the whole truth about the investigations into the JFK assassination!
don't bother.......2000-11-13
Somewhat Disappointing.......2000-10-10
The Best Summation Available.......2000-09-14
In my own book on this case, MURDER IN DEALEY PLAZA (2000), I provide a set of 16 "smoking guns", beginning with two drawn from Galanor's book; and at the conclusion of my "Prologue", I advise my readers to begin with COVER-UP (1998) before they read mine. So don't be taken in by the book's easy-to-read style or by the abundant photographs, diagrams, and illustrations that make this case accessible to everyone who can read. It takes experts years to master this material. Galanor makes it accessible in hours.

Good News, Bad News: Journalism Ethics and Public Interest (Critical Studies in Comm & in Cultural Industries)
Jeremy Iggers Manufacturer: Westview Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0813329523 |
Book Description
In Good News, Bad News, Jeremy Iggers argues that journalism's institutionalized conversation about ethics largely evades the most important issues regarding the public interest and the civic responsibilities of the press. Changes in the ownership and organization of the news media make these issues especially timely; although journalism's ethics rest on the idea of journalism as a profession, the rise of market-driven journalism has undermined journalists' professional status. Ultimately, argues Iggers, journalism is impossible without a public that cares about the common life. Written in an accessible style, Good News, Bad News is important reading for journalists, communication scholars, and students.Customer Reviews:
An excellent take on an underdiscussed topic.......2000-05-20
Iggers argues that the ethical discourse commonly inferred in the practice of journalism tends to ignore issues concerning the public interest and the social responsibility on which the press is founded. Environmental changes and the rise of market-driven journalism have caused a decline in the professional status of practicing journalists.
Ultimately, Iggers declares that the continued existance of journalism depends on a engaging the public in an open dialogue in which the public interest is central and practical goals are identified to help journalism "take as its foundation a commitment to enable citizens to participate in democratic life."
According to Iggers, part of the problem journalists have is an inability to discuss ethics in conceptual terms. Rather, most tend to discuss ethics in terms of cases, the most notable being the Janet Cooke case.
However, even in such cases, Iggers suggests that journalists do not often articulate the principles behind the cases, but tend to evaluate such examples on the merits of their effect in the relationship between the press and the public. Because of this, Iggers explains that the institutional values of journalism are not rooted in rules, but in evolving practices. And these practices appear to focus on making sure the journalist's ethical behavior cannot be questioned, invoking Gaye Tuchman's "defensive ritual."
After providing a historical context for the foundation of industry ethical codes, Iggers tracks ethical thought through the century in order to provide a context for the Janet Cooke incident. Iggers cites this controversy as a defining moment in journalism ethics which brought the discourse to national attention. Iggers then discusses the industry following the Cooke incident to provide a context for his discussion of the present issues.
Iggers cites several reasons for journalists' inability to conceptualize ethics. One major reason is that journalism encompasses several competing philosophies, which has led to "fundamental incoherencies and contradictions built into the core principles of the profession."
In addition, the practice of objectivity biased journalists against making moral judgements. According to Iggers, this philosophy carries over to ethical thought.
Also, changes in the concept of newsworthiness have resulted in a fundamental shift in focus from informing citizens to serving customers. "There is very little talk nowadays about readers as citizens," Iggers writes. "Rather, readers are spoken of as customers and the newspaper as a product. Increasingly, journalistic decisions are being made not on the basis of journalists' professional expertise about what it is important for the public to know, but on the basis of market research about what kinds of things customers, or potential customers, want to know."
Another problem in journalism ethical discourse is the scope of ethical codes in the workplace. Ethical codes are often aimed at individual reporters, not the institutions themselves. Also, Iggers points out that the owners of media are excluded from the discussion. Finally, many of the principles that are practiced tend to apply only to the story level, allowing inherent conflicts to arrive at the layout and publication level.
Iggers claims the solution for the survival of journalism is rooted in a pragmatic ethical base of theory. This approach would focus the creation and sustaining of a public sphere as the primary goal of journalism. In practice, Iggers advocates turning to a form of public journalism that centers around building an alliance between journalists and the public.
Iggers portrays the difference in philosophy as moving from a position of journalism without the public (the traditional model) to a practice of journalism about the public (a model addressing the concerns of the common reader) to a goal of journalism with the public (as a tool that enhances the abilities of citizens to function in society). According to Iggers, this process requires journalists approach the public as an ally, abandon professional arrogance and admit that "journalists need the public even more than the public needs them."
Iggers' portrayals of marketing influences and of the anti-democratic potential of journalistic objectivity are compelling. By building on traditional trends and discourse, he is able to show how the changing landscape of journalism practices demands critical attention.
However, Iggers acceptance of the consolidation of advertising and editorial content as a logical step in the service of the public should raise a few skeptical eyebrows. The open discussion and service he promotes with the public sphere appears to assume such a sphere would be media savvy enough to articulate what it expects from journalism. It also seems to suggest that the public sphere would desire journalism over entertainment, which is a difficult premise in light of his stated view that broadcast news has evolved into non-journalistic entertainment under public influence.
Good News, Bad News would make an interesting text for a journalism ethics course, if only for the background perspective and intelligent discussion of current issues.

Comm Check...: The Final Flight of Shuttle Columbia
Michael Cabbage , and William Harwood Manufacturer: Free Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 0743260910 |
Book Description
On February 1, 2003, the unthinkable happened. The space shuttle Columbia disintegrated 37 miles above Texas, seven brave astronauts were killed and America's space program, always an eyeblink from disaster, suffered its second catastrophic in-flight failure. Unlike the Challenger disaster 17 years earlier, Columbia's destruction left the nation one failure away from the potential abandonment of human space exploration. Media coverage in the immediate aftermath focused on the possible cause of the disaster, and on the nation's grief. But the full human story, and the shocking details of NASA's crucial mistakes, have never been told -- until now.Based on dozens of exclusive interviews, never-before-published documents and recordings of key meetings obtained by the authors, Comm Check takes the reader inside the conference rooms and offices where NASA's best and brightest managed the nation's multi-billion-dollar shuttle program -- and where they failed to recognize the signs of an impending disaster. It is the story of a space program pushed to the brink of failure by relentless political pressure, shrinking budgets and flawed decision making. The independent investigation into the disaster uncovered why Columbia broke apart in the sky above Texas. Comm Check brings that story to life with the human drama behind the tragedy.
Michael Cabbage and William Harwood, two of America's most respected space journalists, are veterans of all but a handful of NASA's 113 shuttle missions. Tapping a network of sources and bringing a combined three decades of experience to bear, the authors provide a rare glimpse into NASA's inner circles, chronicling the agency's most devastating failure and the challenges that face NASA as it struggles to return America to space.
