Page "Nicholas Katzenbach" Paragraph 13

The Committee's final report implies that Katzenbach, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, and others were the key actors behind the creation of the Warren Commission.

According to the report, Hoover told staff members on November 24, 1963 that he and Katzenbach were anxious to have " something issued so we can convince the public that Oswald is the real assassin ," though the idea of a commission was initially opposed by President Johnson.
