Operation Mockingbird: CIA’s Secret Script Explained

Operation Mockingbird: Did the CIA really script the news? This deep dive unpacks declassified files, Church Committee hearings, Carl Bernstein’s reporting, and Ramparts’ exposés to trace how the CIA allegedly recruited journalists, funded front groups, and shaped Cold War media narratives. We separate documented evidence from speculation, examine key players (Frank Wisner, Allen Dulles, Cord Meyer), and consider modern parallels in disinformation and press freedom. Perfect for history buffs, media students, and anyone worried about government influence on journalism.
