Captain Moonlight: More controversy
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.ANTHONY Summers, the writer who caused a wonderful stir with his revelation that J Edgar Hoover liked nothing better than a frolic with a frock on, is about to create more controversy. Summers and his wife, Robbyn Swan, have been working for nine months on a television documentary about the assassination of President Kennedy, due to be shown on BBC2 later this month. They have spent long periods in Russia and Mexico, visited by Lee Harvey Oswald before the killing. Now, though, they are dissociating themselves from the programme, a co-production by Invision, an independent production company in London, and WGBH in Boston. Although neither of them will comment, it is known that they disagree with a decision by the American producers that the programme should reach the definite conclusion that Oswald was acting alone. Oh, no, please, not another conspiracy.
