104-10337-10008 JFK Assassination Records Archives 1 (3/11/1993)

handle is hein.jfk/jfkarch19353 and id is 1 raw text is: S1O4.iO337~1OOO8 I COLLECTIONS 411N FULL ch 1993 NOTE FOR FROM: SUBJECT: : Deput irector for Operations eter Earnest Chief, Media Relations WASHINGTON POST Request to Talk to an Agency Specialist on the Kennedy Assassination The WASHINGTON POST is preparing a series of articles on! the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Kennedy assassination. With the help of CIC, we recently arranged for George Lardner and Walter Pincus of the WASHINGTON POST to interview former KGB officer Yuri Nosenko about his knowledge of Lee Harvey Oswald during the time Oswald lived in the Soviet Union. To ensure that Nosenko's resettlement identity and location would remain protected, I made the arrangements for Nosenko to come to Washington for the interview. The POST reimbursed Nosenko for expenses and paid him a $250 consulting fee. The interview was done on Wednesday, 3 March, at the POST offices downtown. I did not remain for it. Lardner and Pincus also hosted a lunch for Nosenko which was attended by Ben Bradlee. Lardner and Pincus were very pleased with their session with Nosenko and appreciative of our making it possible. I also spoke afterwards with Nosenko who said he was satisfied with how the interview wa$ conducted and with the financial arrangements. Shortly after the interview, Lardner faxed me a list of the questions that he and Pincus had prepared for themselves to use in checking out Nosenko's information. They asked if there was anyone at the Agency they could talk to about the individuals named. I told them that developing information in response to-tbeir questions would probably take a good deal of research aid that I doubted the Agency would be able to take on such a task at this time for the POST. However, I said I would take it up with the appropriate offices. Although I told the POST that I do not believe anyone would be willing to undertake research on their questions, I'm wondering if there is anyone around who might be knowledgeable of Nosenko's information who would be willing to talk with Lardner and Pincus on background based on his/her existing knowledge. I think Lardner and Pincus would be grateful for making such a person available even if c/f eA 11 Mar
