really curious about...


The female Gong Show panelist, I think it was, who said there were many things she remembered about Chuck that are so disturbing that you would really want to know them. Wow, I mean what was shown in the movie is disturbing enough, but I'm trying to imagine what could be so much more disturbing than killing 33 people (or whatever it was)? My guess is maybe he preyed on some of the down and out guests on some of these shows, the Gong Show in particular. It's probably a given that the casting couch was well worn by the time Chuck hung up his "gong", so to speak. Probably those young aspiring actresses who made it onto the Dating Game were taken for many a test drive. But I'm guessing it's more disturbing that that. It probably involved severe abuse of some kind. Being raised as a girl because your mother blames you for the death of your twin sister? That's the kind of thing serial killers are made of. I really have to commend Chuck for coming clean about all of this however, which is probably by far the most noble thing he's done in the course of a pretty sordid life.

The female Gong Show panelist is singer Jaye P. Morgan, notorious for stripping and baring her breasts live on the show.

Chuck killing 33 people is pure fiction, it didn't happen in real life. But even if it did, Jaye P. Morgan wouldn't have known about it. So obviously what she remembered was not as bad as that.

How would you know it's fiction? I believe she said that after the book came out so she would have known about it. The CIA would never have allowed it to be published if it was fiction - a famous person doing profoundly illegal things like murdering on American soil at the behest of the CIA. Or they would have made sure it contained information that could be easily disproven thereby discrediting the entire book. What possible motive would he have to lie about it? It's not like he's proud of. He's consumed with self-loathing.

How would the CIA stop someone from writing a book telling about things that the CIA didn't really do? There is no legal way for them to do it and little reason for them to want to do it.
