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

This is in response to a prominent researcher who inquired as to how they came up with images of Billy Lovelady in a plaid shirt.

I'll tell you how they did it, but first, please don't react as many do and be dismissive of it because you're not prepared to hear it. It is NOT far-fetched.

What happened is that the FBI went into the movie business. They started creating fake footages of "Lovelady" in a long-sleeved plaid shirt on 11/22. The first came out in 1966, so three years later. It was during Harold Weisberg 's booktour for Photographic Whitewash when, lo and behold, the second footage of John Martin was discovered, that was totally inconsistent qualitatively with his main footage,  which shows Lovelady lingering outside 10 minutes after the shooting. Keep in mind that Lovelady wasn't even there at the time. He left immediately with Shelley for the railroad yard and then reentered the building through the back door. 

So that's supposed to be Lovelady who is smoking in the red plaid shirt. The tall slender black man in the brown shirt is supposed to be Bonnie Ray Williams, but he's fake too. And Williams, like Lovelady, was not there at the time. This is fake footage. The man on the left in the fedora hat was put in to represent the comparable man in the Altgens photo, but that man was standing by the obelisk and was not in the doorway. And for some reason, the film starts with an Oswald-like figure being allowed to enter. This is fake footage that they came up with to counter Harold Weisberg. And note that Doorman's shirt is NOT plaid. It is amorphously varied but not plaid. Plaid means horizontal and vertical lines crisscrossing forming boxes. There is not a single box on Doorman's shirt.

So, why do they call it plaid on the left? Because they are stupid. What we are seeing on Doorman is a combination of Oswald's grainy pattern plus light reflection plus distrotion from the extreme blow-up that it is. Doorman's shirt is not plaid. It is no more plaid than it is striped. 

But, that wasn't enough for them. Next, they inserted a Lovelady figure, a different Lovelady figure, into some footage of Oswald being taken to Fritz' office at 2 PM. 

That is from the David Wolper film, and the guy seated at the desk is supposed to be Lovelady. In truth, no one was there. It was not the kind of desk at which anyone would sit. It was just a supply table, with forms and whatnot. They dropped him in t here. 

But, it is rather shabby, so years later, they replaced it with a whole new production and a whole new Lovelady; this time a real muscular guy. This is in slow-motion. It's also out of focus until the end when it focuses sharply on "Lovelady." 

But afterwards, they realized that they made that Lovelady too buff, so they adjusted the aspect ratio to slim him down, but they got carried away with that too.

All of this frantic phony  movie-making because two stupid FBI agents too pictures of the real Lovelady wearing the shirt he wore on 11/22/63 and didn't realize that, being short-sleeved, it could not possibly be the one worn by the Man in the Doorway. They even tried to re-create the spread in Doorman's shirt by unbuttoning Lovelady's shirt and nudging it open.  

I'll leave you with a piece of irony. I've pointed out how Oswald had the habit of clasping his hands in front, which he did in the doorway and at other times that weekend. But, look at Lovelady who is clasping his hands in back. So, his habit was to do it the opposite way. To each his own.
