We are at the New York Times“,
Robert Redford says in his furios plot point in „Three Days of the Condor“
pulling out the state´s assassination of US citizens.
At the same time remembering that such murder, state ordered really occurred in the US.
In real life it was Washington reporter Jack Anderson
who revealed at that time secret military techniques in Vietnam
for which he was about to be killed for in Washington.
It was the Washington journalist who wrote about nuclear almost devastating the world with India and Pakistan escalating to World War 3;
and it was Jack Anderson who revealed that the US based telecommunication gigant ITT planned to overthrow Chile´s government together with the CIA.
This was his death sentence,
hadn´t those who were to kill him been caught befor:
His assassins were the burglars who triggered off Watergate.
Befor they intended to kill the journalist,
they decided first to break into the Watergate complex´s offices of President Nixon´s rivals.
Mark Feldstein, investigative journalist himself, wrote this amazing documentary side of the „Days of Condor“:
According to his book „Poisoning the Press“, former FBI-Agent Gordon Liddy and Ex-CIA-Mann Howard Hunt hired Cubans in exile for the homicide after having consulted a former CIA agent involved in the assassination plot of Fidel Castro.
Drug wiped on the steering wheel of Anderson´s car were to make him drive into a deadly accident, the Professor for Journalism at the university of Maryland elaborates bit by bit in his 460 pages book.
Washington Post, National public radio NPR and Public broadcast service´s programme „Frontline“ highlighted this long forgotten aspect of Watergate and of the famous Hollywood movie.
The author of „Six Days of the Condor“, James Grady, worked together with the real assassination plot victim Jack Anderson befor turning the book into the blockbuster „Three days of the Condor“ starring Robert Redford as Joseph Turner – revealing murder in the name of the state: the real and original „Turner diaries“, befor this title was used for the right wing extremist´s killing saga.
German broadcast network Deutsche Welle defamed the brilliant movie against assassination in the name of the state – had they better read the Harvard based „Poisoning of the press“ and the Washington reporters´ articles. Watergate at Hollywood.
Three Days of the Condor will be aired again at German – French cultural television network Arte on Decembre 20 th 2022 at 21.50 pm.
