"The agency had for decades denied knowing about Oswald's pro-Cuba advocacy, as well as any involvement." In which case, "decades" would have to mean at least 20 years of activism. Oswald was 24 at the time he died. I don't think the numbers add up, unless they meant to say "years."
Edit: I read the quote wrong. In the words of Emily Litella: "Never mind." Sorry about that.
The SeeEyeAye has been spewing, "We knew nothing," and "It wasn't us," for many years. So, perhaps the referenced section is simply saying that the SeeEyeAye has denied having knowledge and denied being involved ever since 1963 (or however long ago investigations or allegations first tagged them [in the 60's or 70's]), which would have occurred "decades" ago.

No problem. I read the quotation the wrong way, as I now see. I thought the "decades" applied to Oswald's activism.
Yes, this ^^^
