The lapse from nonviolent discipline in Memphis freed the FBI from the inhibitions that the public's respect for King's conduct if not his message had imposed, and opened the way for character assassination on all fronts. By the next day, March 29, FBI director J. Edgar Hoover approved a second effort "to publicize hypocrisy on the part of Martin Luther King."
