New York Times: National Archives Release Files on John F. Kennedy’s Assassination
• The federal government just released thousands of documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963.
• The papers were posted online by the National Archives in compliance with a 1992 law requiring their release after 25 years.
