First off, the CIA didn't assasinate JFK. The mob had him killed because he didn't pay them back for everything they did for him (you know, like getting him elected and financing his camaign). Most Americans have long since accepted that JFK was in debt to the mob, many have gotten to the stage of acceptance where they claim they "always knew".

Secondly, JFK's assasination was 40 years ago, nobody gives a damn anymore (and anyone involved is dead by now). If it turned out that the CIA did kill him, there would be a few weeks of news coverage, a couple of "I told you so's", and then nothing. A few people would lose their stars on the wall at CIA headquarters - nothing more.

As for the freedom of information act, it doesn't mean squat - just like the executive order forbidding assasination doesn't mean squat. Under the freedom of information act, I can ask the FBI for a copy of their file on me - but they can deny me access to the file if they claim it's part of an investigation (which they will as soon as I ask for it).
