In that era it was typical for there to be a disconnect between a
celebrity's image and the reality of their private lives. Who knew that
Mickey Mantle was a lush. Who knew that Cary Grant was bisexual and had an
affair with Randolph Scott or that he experimented with LSD. Insiders knew
these things but in those days, reporters took the attitude that a
celebrity's private life should not be made public. Now everything is laid
bare. Every sordid detail.

You show how brave you are by waiting for someone to die before you attack
him. Did you vote for Goldwater because Nixon was too Liberal for you

It was the media that withheld the truth while he was alive, and for
years after he was dead.

All in support of the "Camelot" narrative

I was mystified when I visited the JFK Library. His voice sounded from
every room on the lower level. It was as though he were still alive.
There were only a few small tv screens showing the assassination. I found
that surreal... Pamela

"her", not "him". Jackie created the Camelot myth, not Jack. I`m not sure
he would have approved.

He did like the record from the Broadway musical. Alan Jay Lerner who
wrote the lyrics for the Camelot music was a classmate of JFK's at
Harvard. That was about the extent of his connection to Camelot. The rest
was a media creation.

I saw the original production on Broadway. It was wonderful...
