Help us examine the lost JFK files
Dallas Morning News asks its readers, “Help us examine the lost JFK files.”
A particularly smart move not only because the JFK files are too many for any single journalist to examine - but because it’s a local story with national appeal.
The role of the newsroom: pointing out where the story is and asking for help in uncovering the facts. As The Dallas Morning News put it: “Given the volume, we haven’t been able to review most of the files. That’s why were calling on you. Here’s your chance to review never-seen-before materials related to the JFK assassination.”
