The Men Who Killed Kennedy

The Men Who Killed Kennedy is a video documentary series by Nigel Turner that originally aired in 1988 in England with two one-hour segments about the John F. Kennedy assassination. The United States company, Arts & Entertainment purchased the rights to the original two segments, then three more one-hour segments were added in 1991. A sixth segment was added in 1995. Three additional hourly segments were added by the History Channel in November 2003.

The ninth 2003 segment, entitled "The Guilty Men", directly implicated Lyndon B. Johnson. Within days, Johnson's widow, Lady Bird Johnson, more of LBJ's surviving associates, ex-President Jimmy Carter, and the lone, living Warren Commission commissioner and ex-U.S.-president Gerald R. Ford immediately complained to the History Channel and subsequently threatened legal actions against the Arts & Entertainment Company, owner of the History Channel. "The Guilty Men" segment was completely withdrawn by the History Channel.

As of March 2004 a 3-member panel of historians, selected by only The History Channel, is reviewing "The Guilty Men"'s claims and said it will be airing a live discussion about the claims.
