What is more dangerous for the future of our country than a conspiracy
to assassinate a president? It is a conspiracy to manipulate and control
what the American people are told by the national news media. There
are scores of unanswered questions surrounding the event of the
afternoon of March 30, 1981. For instance, John Chancellor, eyebrows
raised, informed the viewers of NBC Nightly News that the brother of the
man who tried to kill the president was acquainted with the son of the
man who would have become president if the attack had been
successful. As a matter of fact, Chancellor said in a bewildered tone,
Scott Hinckley and Neil Bush had been scheduled to have
dinner together at the home of the vice president's son the very next
night. And, of course, the engagement had been canceled. . .
Then a peculiar thing happened:
The story vanished. To this day, it has never been reported in the New York Times,Washington Post
or many other metropolitan newspapers, never
again mentioned by any of the television news
networks, and never noted in news magazines
except for a brief mention in Newsweek, which
lumped it with two ludicrous conspiracy scenarios
as if the Bush-Hinckley connection didn't deserve
some sort of explanation.
