Plausible Denial

Plausible Denial (copyright 1991, published by Thunder's Mouth Press, New York, NY, ISBN 1-56025-000-3) is a book by American lawyer, Mark Lane that chronicles his legal defense of Victor Marchetti, a former CIA agent who wrote an article for The Spotlight about the assassination of John F. Kennedy and was sued for defamation by E. Howard Hunt.

Plausible Denial states that the CIA was responsible for the assassination of Kennedy and that E. Howard Hunt engaged in a conspiracy.[1]

In a review for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Bob Hoover wrote that Plausible Denial "will give little grist for conspiracy buffs to chew on."[2] Hoover added: "Hunt's link to the [assassination of Kennedy] is not confirmed by Lane's poorly written and sanctimonious book."[2]
