This is an internal FBI memo. It says that according to Al Resch, Executive News Editor of AP News Photos, the Altgens photo didn't hit the papers until Saturday.


Don't you think the Executive News Editor of AP News Photos would know when an AP photo was published? If the Altgens6 photo had been wired to the world at 1:00 Friday, it would have been widely published on Friday in the afternoon papers, the evening papers, and the extra editions. We'd have seen it as much as much as we saw of Altgens7 on Friday- which was a lot. 

And consider this: for the Executive News Editor of AP News Photos to say it was Saturday, it was probably based on very specific information.  

Roy Schaeffer, who is an OIC senior member, informed us that he received the AP fax of Altgens6 at the Dayton Daily News in Ohio. He said it came in at 7:00 AM on Saturday morning. He took it off the wire himself. He also said that he saw massive signs of photographic alteration, and he ought to know. He only worked in the newspaper business as a photo processor for 35 years.
