Charles L. Bartlett was an American newspaper columnist and a close friend of John F. Kennedy. Kennedy recounted to Bartlett a much different version of his meeting with Jewish leaders at Abraham Feinberg's apartment, expressing outrage at the suggestion of controlling U.S. Middle East policy in exchange for campaign funds. Bartlett also recalled Kennedy making cynical remarks about Myer Feldman, his presidential point man for Jewish and Israeli affairs.1
