but oliver stone's movie was a big deal when it came out and congress thought, you know what, let's justld trump said before the deadline that's looming, we are going to get to see all these documents. i think he did the right thing. i'm very interested in looking at these documents this week. >> he did have a caveat, doug. he said he'll release them subject to the receipt of further information. what should we make of that? >> that a lot of these documents have parts that may be redacted or excised out for security reasons. it's hard for me to imagine what those could be this many decades later, but there may be a couple of spots where it's blanked out and it will just conspiracy theories, what are they covering up on that page? >> do you think donald trump is releasing these files as a play to his base? >> i do think so. you know, he floated the conspiracy in the campaign that ted cruz, senator of texas -- >> or his father. >> yeah, the father. it was the cruz family. so he's dabbled in these conspiracy theories. but, look, he had a deadline looming, he had to make a yes or no decision

the oscar—winning director oliver stone initially said weinstein shouldn't be judged prematurely. broke the law, it'll come out, there will be a trial and i believe a man shouldn't be condemned by a vigilante system. but later in a post on facebook, he said, after looking at what has been reported in many publications over the last couple of days: i'm appalled and commend the courage of the women who've stepped forward. i therefore recuse myself from the guantanamo series as long as the weinstein company is involved. long—time politicalfriends are now distancing themselves from this big dollar democratic fundraiser, too. hillary clinton here speaking with the bbc‘s andrew marr. it was just disgusting and the stories that have come out are heartbreaking. and i really commend the women who have been willing to step forward now and tell their stories. but i think it's important that we not just focus on him and whatever consequences flow from these stories about his behaviour, but that we recognise this kind of behaviour can't be tolerated anywhere. harvey weinstein has denied any al

fast forward to 1991, oliver stone movie "jfk" had come out.fk film by oliver stone posited a theory that it wasn't oswald acting alone but a broader conspiracy. had always been that around the assassination but movie drove interest into overdrive. in 1992 congress passed a law, jfk records act, idea to tamp down the assassination conspiracy theories. the first batch of documents under that law were released the following year in 1993, and nbc sent tom pettit to the national archives to report on the new details that were sure to turn up in those records. there was a lot of interest. turned out to be kind of a bust. >> the thousands of documents do show that the cia was deeply involved in the assassination investigation. nothing of any other cia involvement so far. one file from 1963, kgb defector tells the cia the assassination may have been planned by the kgb, but no evidence. the cia did serious investigation, proving that oswald was on a bus trip from mexico city. but we already knew that. from inside the soviet union, found photos of oswal

assassination in november 1963 launched a thriving conspiracy industry and stoked by questions raised in oliver stone's 1991 movie "jfk." >> why was kennedy killed? who benefited? who has the power to cover it up? who? >> reporter: the official investigation concluded that one man, lee harvey oswald, a former marine who once tried to defect to the soviet union, acted alone in killing the president, but congress decided in 1992 that because so much information in the kennedy files was classified undermining public confidence in that conclusion, the national archives was given 25 years to make all of it public bit by bit. the last of it is due out thursday. >> i'm hoping to learn a lot more about what the government knew before the assassination about in man lee harvey oswald because the story of the assassination has changed in recent years. >> reporter: one big question. what was oswald doing in mexico two months before the assassination? president trump says he'll allow the long blocked and classified jfk files to be opened, assuming the cia and fbi don't convince him to keep some of it classified add

congress was reacting to public interest in the assassination in part due to the success of a film by oliver stone called "jfk" that raised a lot of conspiracy theories. of course there had been earlier iterations where people wurnondd were others involved. because of the sensitivity in the first decades after the assassination about official classified records that might be about people alive or current missions within the intelligence community or investigative matters, these records were sealed for a long time. in 1992 congress said by october 26, 2017, whomever is president will have the authority to decide if the remaining 3,000 or so pages of historical documents can be made public through the national archives. that's why it falls to donald trump. that's why it's happening now, with a deadline coming this week. there have been many members of congress urging the president to get the information out there for the sake of transparency. historically when we learn something new, there are experts in the area of research of the jfk assassination who do not expect that there will be some big secr
