Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

Good to know that Jack White looked at the original Moorman photo, Backass, because he thought it was altered. 

Of course, Jack White also thought that the Zapruder film, the Nix film, the Altgens photo, and the Backyard photos were altered. Perhaps he thought that other JFK assassination imagery was also altered, but those are the ones I know of. I'm sure that if he were alive today I could convince him that the Towner film, the Hughes film, the Wiegman film, and the DPD footage were also altered. 

A Betzner photo was also maliciously altered by cropping.

And let's keep the record straight here, Backass: there is plenty you haven't responded to, which is your way of saying: "you're fucking right, Cinque." These would include the discovery of disparate signatures belonging to Oswald, the finding of the Carcano test in which the bullet didn't even traverse the head of a sow at 40 yards, and my recent demolition of the Single Bullet Theory relating to the angles. 

The great Jack White, who saw the original Moorman photo, said that it was altered.

   

Now, if Jack White was basing that on having seen the original Moorman photo, then I am obviously can't expect to find any version of it that is unaltered. It's also worth noting that although the Moorman photo was a Polaroid, which has no negative, they did create a negative from it. 

It was DTH reporter Jim Featherston who confiscated Mary Moorman's photo, and of course Jean Hill did not like the way that that went down.

Hill testified, "There was a man holding Mary's arm and she was crying and he had hold of her camera trying to take it with him."
"Who was that?" Specter asked her.

Mrs. HILL. Featherstone of the Times Herald and --Mr. SPECTER. Dallas Times Herald?
Mrs. HILL. That's right. . . . [He was] holding her by the arm and her camera. and telling her she had to go with him, I started trying to shake his hand loose and grab the camera and telling him that "No, we couldn't go, we had to leave." . . . I was just wanting to get out of there and to get away and he kept telling me -- he insisted we go with him and . . . he just practically ran us up to the court house, I guess it is, and put us in this little room . . . we couldn't leave. He kept standing in front of the door and he would let a cameraman in or someone to interview us and they were shooting things in our faces, and he wouldn't let us out.⁽²⁾

Jean Hill Not only did "Featherstone" hold Hill and Moorman captive in the courthouse, but according to Jean Hill, he also tried to keep her from saying certain things to the press -- particularly her account of a man running up the steps on the grassy knoll after the shots were fired.

Mrs. HILL. ["Featherstone"] said, "You know you were wrong about seeing a man running." He said, "You didn't."Mr. SPECTER. Who told you you were wrong . . .
Mrs. HILL. Featherstone. . . . I said, "But I did," and he said, "No; don't say that any more on the air."
Mr. SPECTER. Who said, "Don't say that any more on the air?"
Mrs. HILL. Featherstone . . . [He said] that the shots had come from a window up in the Depository and for me not to say that any more, that I was wrong about it, and I said "Very well," and so I just didn't say any more that I ran across the street to see the man . .

It's well known that the CIA had assets in place, and some of them were reporters. There's one frequently discussed clip in which Jesse Curry was stumbling over something in an interview, and a reporter started helping him out, putting words in his mouth. I seem to recall that it had to do with what led them to Oswald. 

Was Featherston a CIA asset? Well, Oliver Stone certainly had a sullied view of the man. 

Featherston wasn't law enforcement, so why would he presume the right to be so bossy and controlling with Jean Hill and Mary Moorman? 

What is clear is that there was a concerted plan to confiscate the photographic record of the JFK assassination, and they had assets in place to do it.
