from the time Oswald was arrested (with remarkable speed) the investigation switched from "whodunit" to how to prove Oswald was the lone gunman?

A few years ago the History Channel was running a program called "As it Happened" which consisted only of news broadcasts from when an event occurred. They ran one on JFK's assassination and what struck me was how the media was given every detail of Oswald's life so quickly. I still have the morning newspaper from November 23 and, after watching the the History Channel show I dug it out and was again amazed how much was made public about him less than 24 hours after the murder.

I can also recall that shortly after the murder, Oswald's mother claimed he was a government agent. At the time the media portrayed her as a grieving mother who had a lot of nerve to be so upset when she's the one who raised a kid who would do something so terrible and she was generlly laughed at. I stopped lauging a long time ago.
