This is a very short book. About 150 pages.
The story is that the Zapruder film we have all seen in regard to the Kennedy assassination is actually a third generation CIA developed piece of work and the actual film is being kept from the public.
It is an interesting argument….however, as more time elapses and the original film degrades….the answers will be lost to the ravages of time.
Apparently the Sixth Floor Museum has the rights to the original and thus far have refused to open the container that holds the original. This a pity since it could put these type of books to rest if they are untrue. Also it could preserve ( hopefully ) what is a very important piece of history.
I don’t know if I am a believer of what I read here, but it is food for thought.. let’s see the film and then we would know, right?
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for allowin* me this ARC.

SCAM: The Zapruder Film Copyright by Mark Javitch. JFK assassination conspiracy addicts should love the author’s hypothesis that the widely used Zapruder film is a creation of the CIA and part of its coverup of what really happened in Dallas on 11-22-63. Javitch cites missing frames and multiple splices in the film. Unfortunately the copy provided through NetGalley made looking at the pictures difficult. This reader will draw no conclusions, but hopes the published version will be easier to read for interested parties. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.
