Think about who would benefit from JFK's death.

So he detailed that to DK, and so the federal regime killed her and her assistant.<br /><br />Everybody knows.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-805177506426443892.post-84594290049635307562015-12-05T12:36:43.978-05:002015-12-05T12:36:43.978-05:00I am willing to consider the possibility of some s...I am willing to consider the possibility of some sort of conspiracy behind the killing of President Kennedy (I think there's a 50-50 chance the Mob was involved) but I find laughable the idea that such a plot would extend to Dorothy Kilgallen. Get a grip, is what I say to that.

All of the shows were videotaped at least a day in advance, in some cases six or more days in advance. The era of live television was in limbo during the mid 1960s except for sports. Ampex videotape was commonly used by New York television producers during the last five years of Dorothy Kilgallen's career and life. Even What's My Line, which its fans thought was always live, videotaped summer episodes and Christmas episodes in advance. They were preserved with kinescopes. The Ampex videotapes of the summer and Christmas episodes "got wiped," as people in the television business used to say. Here is what Joanne wrote, and remember that no kinescopes exist of any of it:<br /><br />* In 1965, just months before her death, Dorothy was a guest on Merv Griffin's popular talk show twice (Season 2, Episode 29, Air Date: June 17, 1965) and Season 2, Episode 51, Air Date: July 19, 1965).<br /><br />* Dorothy appeared on other television game shows besides What's My Line?. In 1961, she was a celebrity contestant on Password. That same year, on September 25, she made an appearance on I've Got a Secret along with the rest of the What's My Line? panel. From 1963 until 1964 she was a guest celebrity on 10 episodes of The Match Game. On November 2, 1965, she and Arlene Francis taped an episode of the daytime version of To Tell The Truth in which they portrayed Joan Crawford impostors. Six days later, the episode was broadcast at the same time as Dorothy's death was making news.<br /><br />Moniquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01897487924036803093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-805177506426443892.post-28910986351201322692014-07-08T01:03:08.607-04:002014-07-08T01:03:08.607-04:00Ron Pataky has changed his story about how he lear...Ron Pataky has changed his story about how he learned of Dorothy Kilgallen's sudden death.<br /><br />An audio recording exists of him saying in 1976: "My own mother told me about her death."<br /><br />Ron's mother Daisy Pataky Wollett, nicknamed Day, lived near him in Columbus at the time Dorothy died.<br /><br />Starting in 1992, when Oliver Stone's JFK movie prompted new generations of people to question Ron, he said he had learned the "shocking" news about Dorothy from another writer at his Columbus newspaper: Jane Kehrer Horrocks. She was the correspondent who covered ladies' fashions.<br /><br />Contacted by snail mail, Jane confirmed Ron's claim that the two of them had shared an office and a telephone line in the newspaper building, but she clearly remembered that she had been in California covering ladies' fashion news when news of Dorothy Kilgallen's death reached her. <br /><br />Why did that stand out in Jane's memory more than thirty years later? Though Jane and Dorothy never met, they had many brief telephone conversations when Dorothy made long distance calls to try to reach Ron, and only Jane was in their shared office. <br /><br />Ron worked as a critic of the cinema, live theater and jazz music. Dorothy had no way of knowing in advance when Ron had to attend a screening at a movie theater or a performance at a legitimate theater. He showed up at a place for entertainment almost every day.<br /><br />Jane Kehrer Horrocks' coverage of ladies' fashions required fewer trips throughout the Columbus area, so she frequently answered the phone when Ron was out of the office. Remember, she and Ron shared an office telephone line.<br /><br />After listening to Dorothy talking coherently many times over the phone for more than a year, Jane was shocked to learn that Dorothy had died suddenly in her home. That shock stayed in her memory, and she could say for certain decades later that she had been far away from Ohio at the time. <br /><br />When Ron Pataky now 79, says Jane Horrocks drew his attention to the wire service machine inside their newspaper building as it announced Dorothy's death, he is lying.<br /><br />Someone reading this might want to confirm that Ron said in 1976, "My own mother told me about her death." Lee Israel has the audio recording at her New York home. And the snail mail letter from Jane Kehrer Horrocks? I can scan it and email you a Jpeg if you contact me at janinemgaston @ gmail ...<br /><br />To understand the significance of Ron Pataky's statements over a period of almost forty years, watch television documentaries about men with creepy voices who have been suspected of committing murders and beaten the rap because of insufficient evidence. <br /><br />A common thread among them is that police occasionally ask them the circumstances under which they learned that the victims were dead, and the psychopaths keep changing those circumstances. <br /><br />Ron's voice has been creepy for a long time -- at least since 1975 when Lee Israel first taped him.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03879768662714904334noreply@blogger.com
