Buried Truths: Why Corporate Media Is Terrified of the JFK and Epstein Documents

In this installment of The Disinfo Detox, NolanHigdon is joined by scholar and historian Aaron Good, whose workinterrogates the relationship between the U.S. national security apparatus,elite networks, and modern political power. In a conversation that bridgesdecades of hidden history, Good guides us through the significant — and widelymisunderstood — disclosures contained in the new JFK archive releasesand the Epstein files.

Rather than chasing sensationalism, Good traces how theserevelations illuminate a structural throughline: how intelligence agencies,private financiers, and media institutions collaborate to shape the historicalrecord. We discuss how the corporate press reduces complex statecraft and elitecrime into “conspiracy theory,” creating a civic culture where the public istrained to dismiss evidence in favor of comforting narratives.

The JFK story and the Epstein scandal are rarely discussedtogether — and for good reason:
they expose the continuity of American ruling-class power, theweaponization of secrecy, and the way journalism in the U.S. has beenrepurposed to manage perception rather than reveal truth.

This episode is essential for listeners interested in criticalmedia literacy, political history, and understanding how democratic realitiesare obscured by elite-driven news agendas.
