This one seems interesting, though I don't see any connection to the assassination.

It describes an agent, AMCARBON-1, who remained an agent during a career in journalism. It describes a couple of news stories that were apparently cultivated under the supervision of the CIA, including one about a stolen shrimp boat.

Is this perhaps one of many similar documents describing what came to be known as Operation Mockingbird?
