Christopher Emery, filmmaker behind "A Noble Lie: Oklahoma City 1995," joins Eric Hunley to break down what pushed him into the OKC bombing investigation — and why he believes the raw archival footage, witness accounts, and government documents raise questions the public still hasn’t gotten straight answers to.
In this interview we discuss:
• Why A Noble Lie had to be cut down from 6.5 hours of footage
• Claims of pressure to stop distribution — and why the film still got out
• The Murrah Building camera controversy: what witnesses said existed vs. what was later denied
• Why some accounts describe a narrative that “doesn’t match” what responders and survivors reported
• The Terrence Yeakey case and why it remains controversial
• The investigative ecosystem: committee work, researchers, leaked documents, and the long fight for transparency
