A new tasteless Trash-Piece about President John Kennedy, composed almost entirely of ficticious dialog, malicious rumors, and outright lies, is now being made by Joel Surnow (the creator of the series “24”) — a well-known Hollywood ultra-conservative Neocon, in the form of a 8-part Mini-Series, titled: “The Kennedys“, to be aired on “The History Channel” network.
The piece is so completely full of made-up-out-of-whole-cloth garbage and malicious propaganda, that even the mild mannered Ted Sorenson (former Kennedy aide, and speechwriter) has come out publically denouncing it, in advance of its airing (which is one whole year away).
Filmmaker Robert Greenwald obtained an early version of the screenplay containing a draft of the dialog and its content. Greenwald said, “this one-sided right wing script suffers from a totally vindictive, malicious approach”. Greenwald and Sorenson both contend that it is not only littered with easily documented falsehoods, they also insist that the production team drafted a ridiculous “cartoon” and “caricature” of the former president — downplaying all the weighty historical episodes in favor of tawdry, salacious and entirely ficitious material and dialog.
Greenwald told the Huffington Post he counted more than a dozen sex scenes written into the biopic with only scant acknowledgment of the Cuban Missile crisis. Sorenson, in the film, says that each and every one of the conversations he is depicted to have had with the President never even happened.
“I was amazed to find reading those pages that every single conversation with the President in the Oval office or elsewhere in which I according to the script participated, never happened. There were no such conversations… A minimum amount of research could’ve avoided the remarkable number of obvious errors of that kind in this script.”—Ted Sorensen
Robert Greenwald has now started a Web Site: StopKennedySmears.com where you can sign a Petition to demand that The History Channel stop this character assassination piece that has no business, and no merit being aired on “The History Channel” network.
Everyone please go and sign the Petition StopKennedySmears.com. With enough public pressure from the public, this piece of sleaze journalism, and fraudulent history can be stopped.
It is interesting to note that no other dead public figure, either in politics or in entertainment, has ever withstood such relentless and orchestrated character assassination and trivialization…decade after decade, year after year, and yet continued to remain overwhelmingly popular with the American public.
This is because instinctively Americans are aware, at least on a subconscious level, that John Kennedy was a real and substantive U.S. President, and not anyone’s puppet. He shook up the corrupt U. S. Establishment like no other U.S. President since.
Once again, please visit: StopKennedySmears.com and sign the petition.

Pisses me off. I watch this channel.

on ‘Coast to Coast’. Interesting program btw, about the mafia and the Kennedy connection/assassination of both the Kennedy’s.
There is a pattern there with the rightwingers, they have to trash everything that is halfway decent, because none of them have a decent bone in their body. Look who their heroes are, man like Reagan and Chaney, not to mention Shrub.
Can we deport them to Paraguay, I heard Shrub bought a biiiig ranch there.
