How long before MSM uses the term Operation Mockingbird on air ?
Edited on Thu Feb-17-05 05:15 PM by EVDebs
With CNN and PsyOps www.counterpunch.org/cnnpsyops.html it never made the airwaves of MSM.

With Operation Mockingbird: CIA and Media Manipulation
http://www.prisonplanet.com/analysis_louise_01_03_03_mockingbird.html

only the alternative media and internet get the story. Why won't MSM touch this ?

I'm placing a bet here on DU. I think it will be soon. They can't hide this under the mattress any longer...Gannon, Guckert or whatever his name is, along with the Plame outing, if the CIA is doing stupid stuff overseas that's one thing; but if they're doing really stupid stuff DOMESTICALLY that's the ultimate NO NO and even if there is an Intelligence Identities Protection Act http://foi.missouri.edu/bushinfopolicies/protection.html
there has to be an exception for domestic screw-ups that compromise the very Constitution the intelligence community is sworn to defend !

If Gannon/Guckert was working for the CIA or PsyOps in the military in order to sway public opinion WE NEED TO KNOW IT.

1. Because they are the CMC: The Corporate Media Cartel
they are not mainstream, they haven't been mainstream since Cronkite.

They won't talk about it because it makes them look bad.

2. LANGUAGE ALERT! (Re-framing)
A reminder that MSM should now be referred to as CMC ("corporate media cartel"). Not only is CMC more accurate, but it's bad framing in communicating to the general public to make it sound as if our opponents are "mainstream" (which implies we're not).

Deep Throat A few more thoughts about Watergate
By Bob Harris
www.metroactive.com/papers/sonoma/07.03.97/scoop-9727.html

We already know now that (Sen. R-UT) Robert F. Bennett worked/works for the CIA and even mislead Bob Woodward

""What's missing is an understanding of Deep Throat, Woodward's garage-lurking source who guided the reporters to some of their biggest leads. If he was just a concerned citizen, great. But if Deep Throat had his own agenda, then he used the Washington Post to shape the story for his own purposes and got away clean.

"I have told Woodward everything I know about the Watergate case, except the Mullen Company's tie to the CIA."--Robert F. Bennett, testifying before House Special Committee on Intelligence, July 2, 1974.

Robert Bennett was the head of Robert R. Mullen and Co., a CIA front headquartered in the very same building as the CIA's Domestic Operations Division. The Mullen Co. did legitimate PR work; it also did PR for other CIA fronts and provided cover abroad for CIA operations. Bennett's most notable employee was Howard Hunt, a former chief of covert actions for the Domestic Operations Division of the CIA.""

But very few people know this about Woodward and Bennett. MSM has been covering this up for DECADES.
