Release date: June 15, 2013 "AMERICA'S NEED TO WALK INTO THE NIGHTMARE . . ." . . . was how Norman Mailer predicted the tumultuous period that led to President John F. Kennedy's 1963 murder on a public street and the fifty years of controversy that have followed that turning point in our nation's history. Journalist and historian Joseph McBride, a volunteer in JFK's 1960 Wisconsin presidential primary campaign, began studying the assassination minutes after it happened. In 1982, McBride launched his own investigation. Both epic and intimately personal, Into the Nightmare: My Search for the Killers of President John F. Kennedy and Officer J. D. Tippit incorporates rare interviews with key people in Dallas, archival discoveries, and what novelist Thomas Flanagan, in The New York Review of Books, called McBride's "wide knowledge of American social history." McBride chronicles his evolving skepticism about the official story and shines a fresh, often surprising spotlight on Kennedy's murder and on one of the murkiest, most crucial aspects of the case, its "Rosetta Stone," the Tippit killing. Joseph McBride has been a journalist since 1960, writing for such publications as Life, The New York Review of Books, The New York Times Book Review, The Los Angeles Times Magazine, and, on this subject, The Nation. An internationally renowned film biographer and historian, he has written acclaimed biographies of John Ford, Frank Capra, and Steven Spielberg. McBride lives in Berkeley and is a professor at San Francisco State University.

History

Americas

In 1963, President John F. Kennedy was killed in a coup d’état. Ever since then, it has been virtually taboo in the American mainstream media to report this basic truth. Instead, print and television ''news" reporters and historians spread the government's lies and attack people they label conspiracy theorists rather than investigating the case themselves. Joseph McBride, author of "Into the Nightmare: My Search for the Killers of President John F. Kennedy and Officer J. D. Tippit," offers a deep analysis of this dereliction of journalistic duty. "Political Truth" assimilates a wealth of media disinformation and contrastingly accurate investigations by independent researchers, reporters, and filmmakers. McBride's provocative study traces how the false reporting of the assassination has led to today's poisonous political divide over the meaning of historical reality.\nJoseph McBride has been a journalist since 1960, writing for such publications as the New York Times Book Review, the New York Review of Books, Life, the Los Angeles Times Magazine, and, on this subject, for The Nation. He is the author of many other books on films and other subjects, including acclaimed biographies of Frank Capra, John Ford, and Steven Spielberg. He is a professor in the School of Cinema at San Francisco State University.
