Oliver Stone Mistaken for Roger Stone in Congressional Hearing
During a recent congressional hearing, a notable mix-up occurred when Rep. Lauren Boebert mistakenly referred to filmmaker Oliver Stone as Roger Stone, a political consultant. The confusion arose during a discussion about the JFK assassination, a topic Oliver Stone has extensively covered in his work, including the film 'JFK' and his new documentary 'JFK: Scene of the Crime.'
The hearing, which aimed to explore the possibility of reinvestigating the JFK assassination, saw Oliver Stone present to discuss his findings and theories. However, the error by Rep. Boebert, who is known for her controversial statements, added an unexpected twist to the proceedings. The incident was quickly picked up by media outlets, with many highlighting the confusion between the two unrelated Stones.
Oliver Stone, a three-time Oscar winner, has long been a vocal advocate for a deeper investigation into the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. His latest documentary seeks to shed new light on the event, challenging the official narrative and urging Congress to reconsider the case.
