Based mainly on the new material released from 1993-1995, Newman paints
a picture of "Oswald the file," as opposed to "Oswald the man." What did
compartmented bureaucrats at the CIA know about Oswald from the records
available to them, and when did they know it? Much more than what has been
publicly acknowledged: there was significant interest in Oswald prior to
the assassination. There are also bizarre holes in this interest, suggesting
that Oswald was being manipulated by CIA counterintelligence. "We can finally
say with some authority that the CIA was spawning a web of deception about
Oswald weeks before the president's murder, a fact that may have directly
contributed to the outcome in Dallas. Is it possible that when Oswald turned
up with a rifle on the president's motorcade route, the CIA found itself
living in an unthinkable nightmare of its own making?" (page 430)
