Here's the thing[edit]

If any of you want to dispute my assertion of the single bullet theory lacking credible in terms of whether that should be included in the article, fine, but at least keep my addition on Warren having suppressed information from the rest of the commission.

@UShistoryanalyzer If you can give me two other reliable citations supporting the charges that Warren interfered to protect the reputation of the Kennedys (the history channel is dicey as a source, see also their flirtation with UFO woo and conspiracy theories in the past, but the charges from them here are relatively plausible), I'll add the info myself. ☭Comrade GC☭Ministry of Praise 04:39, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

The FAS link doesn't support the claim. Please provide one more reliable source. ☭Comrade GC☭Ministry of Praise 05:07, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
It says in the FAS source:

Critics found ammunition with which to attack the Commission's work. First, the Commission's time and resource constraints forced it to rely mainly on the FBI to conduct the day-to-day investigation of the murder. Second, the Commission failed to examine some of the most critical evidence in the case: the photographs and x-rays from President Kennedy's autopsy.

Chairman Earl Warren felt that these materials were too gruesome to allow into the public record.
