He worked for 15 years at the Washington Post, and a host of liberal publications including, The Nation, Salon, New Republic, and Arms Control Today. He is the co-founder and editor of the blog JFK Facts, which has attracted some 2.7 million visitors since it launched in 2012. Morley is author of the forhcoming ebook, MORLEY v CIA: MY UNFINISHED JFK INVESTIGATION, which tells the story of his 16-year-long lawsuit to obtain certain ancient JFK assassination records. This roller-coaster saga puts him on a collision course with Judge (now Justice) Brett Kavanaugh. You can order  Morley v. CIA on Amazon. Morley is also author of two CIA biographies. Both tell the story of a powerful CIA officers deeply involved in the events that lead to JFK's assassination. OUR MAN IN MEXICO tells the story of Win Scott, the CIA station chief in Mexico in 1963. Scott, one of the CIA' s most accomplished officers, oversaw the surveillance of accused assassin Lee Harvey Oswald in Mexico City six weeks before JFK was killed. Scott later wrote a memoir saying that the CIA had duped the Warren Commission on a key point about Oswald. Scott wrote that he believed  JFK had been killed by a conspiracy. When Scott died, the CIA seized and suppressed the memoir. You can order OUR MAN IN MEXICO, published by the University of Kansas Press, from your local brick and mortar bookstore. In THE GHOST Morley tells the life story of the legendary James Angleton, paranoid genius and chief of CIA counterintelligence. THE GHOST shows that Angleton and his staff closely monitored Lee Harvey Oswald's personal life, his politics, and his contacts with Cuban and Russian intelligence officers in the four years before JFK was killed. Angleton was deeply interested in the erratic ex-Marine but took no action. Indeed, Angleton was notified that Oswald was in Texas a week before JFK was killed. THE GHOST, like OUR MAN IN MEXICO, offers no JFK theory, only facts. Angleton was responsible for the atrocious counterintelligence failure that culminated in Dealey Plaza. You can order THE GHOST, published by St. Martin's Press, from your local brick and mortar bookstore. You can also order a signed copy of THE GHOST at JeffersonMorleyBooks.com.
