Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) accused NBC News of trying to protect President John F. Kennedy’s real killer.
In an interview on Fox News Friday evening, Luna said she just learned about an alleged NBC News tape that would exonerate Lee Harvey Oswald and that JFK director Oliver Stone told her that he had seen it, according to a clip highlighted by Mediaite.
“I would like to actually tell the American people it was made aware to me this evening that NBC actually has a video that’s never been seen before,” she said. “We’re actually going to be sending a letter requesting that from NBC because it allegedly shows Oswald near the vehicle when the assassination took place, which means that he couldn’t have been the shooter.”
Asked by host Jesse Watters if she is accusing NBC of covering up evidence, Luna said, “Correct…director Stone actually told us that he was showed this tape, that it was a secondary copy, and that he said that this could blow open the entire JFK investigation.”
Luna is leading a task force focused on declassifying federal documents including those related to the assassination of JFK.
Luna announced last month that she would like to hear from “attending physicians at the initial assassination” as well as “people that had been on the various commissions looking into it, like the Warren Commission,” despite the fact that they’re all dead.
On Friday, she confirmed that the task force’s first hearing will be on April 1 with Stone among the guests expected to appear.
