We Call Bullshiz
Filed under: Politik
Canada's Globe and Mail has revealed the identity of a man who claims to be the secret son of John F. Kennedy.
Attention whore!
The JFK Jr. wannabe has no proof, just a good publicist, apparently.
The paper reports that the British Columbia man, Jack Worthington, had been speaking with them under the condition of anonymity for a few days but decided to officially go public after his name was leaked out by another Canadian source.
Worthington has requested a DNA sample from the Kennedy clan so tests could be run to validate (or invalidate) his claim.
Vanity Fair has also reportedly been working on the story the last 18 months.
The main reason we're skeptical is….
Why wait????
Wouldn't this dude have come forward sooner???
This seems like someone out for money to us!

he CERTAINLY LOOKS like JFK
He kinda looks like JFK or maybe Bill Clinton
coming from massachusetts, he looks like a kennedy. specifically, patrick, the congressman from rhode island, seriously.
Well, I'll give him *some* credit for asking for a DNA sample so it can be tested. I would think that if he's a total liar, he'd be making up some excuse to NOT have a DNA test done. Maybe he believes he's JFK's son, even if it isn't true.
Clue: It's an election year and the Republicans have no viable candidate (Methuselah and Fundy Nutcase…whoah, tempting).
Second clue: the Democrats are about to kick Repubelicker ass.
Now, what does a "good" Repubelicker do when the chips are down?
Find some fucking to parade around that a Democrat did…even if it was in the Stone Age. They have no shame. They have no hope. They have to go.
PRESIDENT OBAMA!

IF HE'S NOT A JFK LOVE CHILD, I AM CERTAIN THERE ARE DOZENS OF THEM STILL RUNNING AROUND……….
You've got a typo… It's "British Columbian man" not "British Columbia Man".
You should refer to him as "Worth Jackington" from now on!!!!
Time, blood and DNA tests will prove or disprove all….so if Jack truely is not JFK's son then the Kennedys will have nothing to worry about. However, from the pic you have posted of this man does seem to bear a strong resemblance to that family.
I, for one, am not opposed to JFK having another living heir:)
You never know, lets see some DNA results. Maybe Caroline will get a new brother. Isn't it a little late for him to get will money?..JFK died a long time ago.
I can see him being apart of the Kennedy family for sure. You can't deny his looks, but only time will tell.
BETTER YET.. Is Webster Hubbell Chelsea Clinton's real father?
Well… he does have the Kennedy eyes… but c'mon — a guy from British Columbia?!?
He looks just like JFK
He clearly states in the story he will sign away any money if the Kenedys agree. Report all the info Perez.
He's NOT Canadian, he just lives here. That may be a clue that he's not an attention whore (like some people). Why would he rush to claim his paternity? Kennedy men often end up dead. The Kennedy's will never release DNA. I wonder why not?
He looks alot like JFK.
I would not believe it till we see the DNA report
He looks more like the son of Bob Costas!!
If he's the son of JFK then I'm the 135th person who was on the Grassy Knoll the day Kennedy was murked. Hint: I wasn't thought of or born yet.
Wow, I'm actually shocked by how Perez (or whoever wrote that post) twisted what was in the original story. Considering how many people read this I'd hate to see it become one more place where newswriters write what they want people to believe instead of the actual truth.
Re: Melissa – I know. This is exactly what I said in my post. Unfortunate.
he does look like papi grande tho….
Just because he "waited" doesn't make him a liar. Anyway, he totally looks like JFK. Mario, your brain is not right.
Google some photos of Ted from around the same age and then try and claim there's no resemblence. Look at the eyes! And btw, try READING the reports that dismiss before you slag them off.
If you read the articles that ran in the Globe you might have another take…This man was actually seeking anonymity by going to the press (completely anonymously at first) as certain outlets had begun investigating the matter. He wanted to put a stop to these investigations. He resembles J.F.K. to such an extent that he is constantly stopped in the streets. You ask 'why wait to come forward'? Not everyone wants to be the next Britney! I think that everyone has a right to explore and know their family history regardless of wealth, class, citizenship, infamy, or fame. There's a lot of salacious news out there, but this story, at least for the moment, seems to hold water.
I took a quick look around and found the following photo of a very young JFK as a graduate. He has more of a babyface here (like Ted), and–in my opinion–looks quite a bit like the fleshier man who is seeking verification of his parentage (and, again with the eyes).
See:

he looks more like john goodman's brother, so to speak.
JFK constantly slept around so this comes as no shock. He sure looks a bit like JFK too.
Actually, he looks a bit like Ted Kennedy, but claiming to be his son would be an embarassment, JFK on the other hand more glamorus.
Re: ri ri – If you hate Perez so much, why take the time to go to his web site AND read it and comment on it? You just make him more money everytime you visit the site!! Sounds more like you're a little jelly! Just disguising it as hate.
Oh, He DOES look a lot like J.F.K.
And given the background of the Kennedy men it's NOT absurd for someone to be a child of his. That's what happens when a man in power shares the love with many a willing ladies seeking to bed a powerful man!
it may be fame not money…im from Canada and there saying he has lots !!!!!!
(canada am is where i heard it)
Maybe hes not after money. Considering all the drama, craziness and tragedy that comes with being a Kennedy I can understand not wanting to be identified.
He was outed, that's why he came forward. Do a little digging for once
Your an idiot Perez.
1) The reason the story was suppressed is that a certain Democrat Senator who killed a young woman and got away with it spiked the story.
The New York Post reported last week Sen. Kennedy is attempting to block Vanity Fair from publishing the story. The senator’s office told the Herald they had “nobody available” last week to comment.
2) This man has stated he is not seeking money. “I told Vanity Fair that I would sign an agreement with the Kennedys immediately, in which I agree not to pursue any financial remuneration from the JFK estate whatsover,” he told the TV station.
Ahhh take a look at him I'd say he pretty much looks like the son of JFK!
Re: Sophie California – AMEN!!!!!
He does bear quite a resemblance. How sad for him if true. On the plus side, Caroline would now have a half-brother, Teddy a new nephew, a new and big defensive back for football at the Kennedy compound, and a Canadian retreat for the relatives to escape to with proximity to the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics, lol. Perhaps they would gain from him, and not the other way around. Blessings.
Do you really think the Kennedys are trying to bury the story, or wanting him to sign off on the Kennedy money? If he is in a financial position to be a benefactor, erhaps they might start lining up for hi$, and they should sign off with a similar agreement just to be fair…
The Kennedys will be judged far more now on the graciousness with which they embrace Jack's son should DNA prove him to be. A good Catholic would frown on marginilization considering what this lad has had to live up until now through no fault of his own. This absolutely could be a huge gift to the family, and especially with John Jr. gone before his time. This is possibly wonderful and miraculous news, and could be one of the stories of the decade. Imagine; Jack's paternal legacy may live on through a son as well as his daughter. There are so many exciting implications, that I'll leave it to the family to ponder and revel in.
Perez-Do a side by side-He looks just JFK-Only a little heavier. I believe it!
Hey Perez, check your sources loser - the man is not a British Columbian, he lives there but is an American! Typical of a loser American, you don't get the facts straight.
Your President, whom the world admired and admires, was screwing everything in sight, I am surprised this is the only love child to come forward.
You really need to do a bit more research.
Cover his mouth…he looks just like JFK.
Could this be another Karl Rove scam to defame the last talented, honest statesman to govern the USA during the past 50 years?
As well, he looks too goofy and physically unfit to be the son of JFK.
i'm going to fucking shank this man. just let him rest in peace. :S
Creepy how he kinda looks like he could be half Kennedy lol.
Yeah he's in it for the money? Perez should stick to what he does best and predictions ain't one of them. Remember all that "Castro's dead" nonsense a few months ago?
He looks like he can be Ted Kennedy's son. He looks like a bigger version of Ted Junior. So maybe his mama got it wrong with which Kennedy that she got in on with.
Hey, you're all retarded. He's said specifically he'll sign a contract stating that he is in no way seeking financial recouperations. He owns his own profitable sales/marketing company and left the United States for Canada! Sounds like he's got a good head on his shoulders to me.
ok this is no bullshiz…i think the reason that he never came foreward was probably because he was scared like think about it jfk was assasinated jfk jr was killed in a plane 'accident' everyone who touches the kennidy money dies… through a long blood line I am related to him and our family is extremely supersticious and it makes sense he still looks like an idiot if ya ask me
He may not want money from the Kennedys… but that doesn't mean he's not getting payed for the interviews he's doing, probably more than the Kennedys can afford anyways… OLD MONEY RUNS OUT. Maybe he is independently wealthy, maybe he just wants to get it off his chest. But one things for sure, the older Kennedys will NEVER call this dude family.
Re: jimmyjazz – They don't have hillary's back because Obama reminds them of Kennedy. He brings hope and faith to young americans and he's promising change, just like Kennedy…
to duh #155 - PAID for interviews? Not in Canada, my friend, and neither are we motivated by anywhere near the same degree by money. He was found out, and is attempting to make the best of it. He doesn't need money. Stop putting your values onto others, publicly, dude.
Maybe it was a deathbed revelation by either of his parents or he waited to come forward until his parents were dead. I admit, that is a charitable read, but I don't see a guy seeking DNA if he is just running a scam. Additionally, he filed under Canadian Courts and they, unlike American courts, will administer a thorough spanking for frivolous lawsuits or abuse of process so there is a negative consequence for lawyers so they can't afford to just gamble.
