Re: spam the child molester matt parker off the web

A Question of
Character was published, the Marilyn Monroe thread of the

movement outlined above was in full bloom. As if by design, this
literature assimilated appendages from the other two threads: a
distinct anti-Kennedy flavor, and the idea that the Kennedys
ordered political assassinations. If one follows the pedigree of
this lineage, the reasons for this become clear. The man who
created the RFK/Monroe business, as we will see, was an
incontinent Kennedy hater.

In the Collier-Horowitz book, the authors allude to the pamphlet
that started the industry. Describing Bobby's 1964 campaign for a
Senate seat in New York, they write:
  Meanwhile, right-wingers were circulating a pamphlet
  entitled "The Strange Death of Marilyn Monroe," charging
  that Bobby had been having an affair with the film actress
  and, when she threatened to expose some of his dealings in
  appeasing the Castro regime, had her killed by Communist
  agents under his control. (p. 409)

The authors fail to note the man who penned this work. His name
was Frank Capell. Capell is usually described as an extreme right-
winger associated with the John Birch Society. This is apt, but
incomplete. As Jim Garrison once noted, the more one scratches at
these Minutemen types, the more their intelligence connections
appear.

Swallowing Frank Capell

Capell had worked for the government in World War II, but was
convicted on charges of eliciting kickbacks from contractors for
the war effort. After the war, in the Red Scare era, Capell began
publishing a Red baiting newsletter, The Herald of Freedom. He
was highly active in attempting to expose leftists in the
entertainment industry. It was this experience that put him in a
good position to pen his McCarthyite, murderous smear of Bobby
Kennedy.

But there is another element that needs to be noted about Capell:
his ties to the FBI. As Lisa Pease noted in her watershed article
