The United States Marine Corps (USMC) Major (Ret.) John R. Stockwell, former CIA case officer and former CIA Angola Station Chief who served 12 years in CIA introduces the documentary made about him by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Saul Landau. The movie has been shown in several film festivals around the world and on TV in many countries; but the U.S. networks, including PBS, refused to show it. Consequently, our showing provides its American premiere. Next, we look at segments of three weeks' coverage by the TV networks of the situation concerning the Russian troops in Cuba, interspersed with John's comments. Finally, John gives his evaluation of Cuba, having recently visited there three times, and his arguments against the CIA. The program was designated "tonight's highlight" by the Austin American-Statesman and evoked much discussion. During his career in CIA -- John was also high ranking member of United States National Security Council (NSC).

AlternativeTV has informative videos, but the actual video production leaves a great deal to be desired. There is no attempt whatsoever to add any professionalism to any of the video productions. We could dispense with the very loud noise at the beginning of the videos...they are mostly for editing purposes not for audience viewing. Then there is the matter of amateur production of the rest of the video. You folks need some editing and creativity.

@Trevoc2 They are for both of purposes. They are from Alternative Views video archive. Material here available is in the same format as videos were once created. Below videos you can find download links from where you can download same videos and edit and reproduce them under agreement of Creative common licence 3.0. These low-budget talk show videos etc were created once upon a time to inform and educate people, not in purpose to create entertainment for them. You can reshape them. :)
