Operation Mockingbird
The Central Intelligence Agency owns everyone of any significance in the major media."
-- William Colby, former CIA Director, cited by Dave McGowan, Derailing Democracy
Have you ever noticed that each November the mainstream media still portrays Lee Harvey Oswald as the "Lone Nut" assassin, despite mountains of evidence to the contrary?
Have you ever wondered why?
In the 1950's, the CIA launched "Operation Mockingbird", a program that was designed to create and spread disinformation throughout the American media.
According to Alex Constantine (Mockingbird: The Subversion Of The Free Press By The CIA), in the 1950s, "some 3,000 salaried and contract CIA employees were engaged in propaganda efforts".
We can only imagine how many there are now.
