John Mcadams - Laughing stock of the Internet?
     He's the Westboro Baptist Church of The JFK Research Community !


...McAdams has neither the educational preparation nor the ability for such a position -- his language skills are abysmal; his analytical skills non-existent. Not only has he done no research whatsoever on the historical question he pretends to study, he has no knowledge of even the basics of a research methodology. Thus, McAdams himself argues against long established historical facts; on the other hand, he is incapable of doing the research necessary to either confirm or dispute such facts. - Debra Hartman

Anatomy Of An Online Atrocity
John Mcadams tacitcs again revealed



Who is Mcadams, CIA disinformation asset, or just plain Crackpot? - By Jim Hargrove Since Mcadams is known to use the alias "Paul Nolan" just how many other names has he used to deceive? He claims to be many things. A jet-propulsion expert, or Crackpot?
Here is what was discovered.

McAdams is not just a fraud as a teacher. He is a corrupt man. - by Isabel Kirk
And not merely corrupt; he is an evangelist for corruption and fraud. He has sought and enlisted disciples, and they employ his knowingly fraudulent "methodology" in their writing "assignments," many of which are posted to the website of Marquette University.

    "McAdams did indeed make comments that were intended to imply that Gary Aguilar was a drug addict.
    IMO, they were deliberate, malicious and intended to smear the doctor."

    Mcadams Embarrassed at "The Education Fourm"- by John Simkin
    If you do any research of major figures in the JFK assassination via web search engines you will soon find yourself on John McAdams’ website. He is clearly the main disinformation source on the net. He adopts an academic tone and if one was not aware of the facts of the person or event he is writing about, one would think he has logically looked at the evidence available. He is therefore doing a successful job in misleading students about the JFK assassination.

  • How to Think Like John McAdams - by David Mantik
    Despite his pompous claim to teach all of us how to think critically, McAdams offers not a single reference to standard works on logical fallacies. Nor does he ever present his unique credentials for this task. A

  • Review - by Gary Aguilar, MD
    Right off the bat, John McAdams displays a trait that skeptics find both common and infuriating among Warren Commission loyalists – blatant dishonesty.

    The Gospel According to John McAdams - by Pat Speer

  • Review - by Frank Cassano
    …I suppose McAdams misremembered his real name when he was seen carousing around the 1995 COPA Conference using the assumed name of “Paul Nolan: Jet Propulsion Expert”? Comments on John Mcadams - by Michael T. Griffith
    It is my contention that most of McAdams’ claims are wrong
    and that in some cases McAdams presents information that is badly outdated.

You must have wars or you're not gonna be able to sustain an economy, you're gonna have a terrible depression.
