The Central Intelligence Agency owns everyone of any significance in the major media William Egan Colby
Ever wonder why Osama only releases videos around election times or why Haiti gets the majority of the earthquake coverage while Chili is a mere MSM foot note?
Operation Mockingbird is the reason why. To have the freest society in the world it must be the most propagandized.
In 1948, Frank Wisner (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Wisner) was appointed director of the Office of Special Projects (OSP). Soon afterwards OSP was renamed the Office of Policy Coordination (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_of_Policy_Coordination) (OPC). This became the espionage (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Espionage) and counter-intelligence (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-intelligence) branch of the Central Intelligence Agency. Wisner was told to create an organization that concentrated on "propaganda (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda), economic warfare; preventive direct action, including sabotage (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabotage), anti-sabotage, demolition and evacuation measures; subversion against hostile states, including assistance to underground resistance groups, and support of indigenous anti-Communist (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-communism) elements in threatened countries of the free world."[3] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird#cite_note-ig_inv-2)
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird#cite_note-ig_inv-2)
Later that year Wisner established Mockingbird, a program to influence the domestic and foreign media. Wisner recruited Philip Graham (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_Graham) from The Washington Post (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Washington_Post) to run the project within the industry. According to Deborah Davis in Katharine the Great (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katharine_the_Great); "By the early 1950s, Wisner 'owned' respected members of The New York Times (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_New_York_Times), Newsweek (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newsweek), CBS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBS) and other communications vehicles."[4] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird#cite_note-3)
In February 1976, George H. W. Bush (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_H._W._Bush), the recently appointed Director of the CIA, announced a new policy: "Effective immediately, the CIA will not enter into any paid or contract relationship with any full-time or part-time news correspondent accredited by any U.S. news service, newspaper, periodical, radio or television network or station." However, he added that the CIA would continue to "welcome" the voluntary, unpaid cooperation of journalists.[23] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird#cite_note-22)
This welcoming of voluntary cooperation is easily garnered when the spooks pay their Quantico grads to enroll in journalism school for another four years and then employee their standing embedded assets to hire on these new assets both in domestic and foreign media.
None of this should be news to you. As we are all CT buffs you should of already known about this via the Net. The net is the biggest threat to the MockingBird domination of information. Unrestricted , unstoppable access to information that has not been sanitized by sanctioned sources. Through the internet the Global Warming lies have been exposed along with US torture and secret prisons. The kind of things that would never of made it into the MSM before the internet but in the post digital age these kind of stories buzz through the blogosphere faster than the 9 o'clock news and it is all the MSM can do to spin damage control. For example playing down the sick US torture of POWs as water boarding. The beating of the heels and electrified nut sacks gets drowned out in an MSN white noise of water boarding but the images of sadistic inhuman torture are still logged and accessible online to remind everyone just how vie our own nation can truly be on par with North Korea in terms of human rights violations. If not for the net though... the stories may of never of made it into the US living room.
So I have to wonder with the upcoming free web the government is gonna provide what will they do to edit it? Will sites like wikileaks and cryptome be black listed? I also suspect that our next major false flag will be a cyber false flag designed to shut down our access to the web to reboot a more controlled intraweb not unlike Chinas web or Australias upcoming web.
One has to wonder what the future holds for our internet as the CIA seeks to regain control of the access to information they lost to the web.
