The CIA has been in bed with Hollywood for decades. Eric Hunley and Mark Groubert present America's Untold Stories where we explore cultural figures and history that is often under-appreciated or overlooked. Operation Mockingbird, the Cold War CIA program to infiltrate the American media is supposedly long gone. But is it really? Between 2006 and 2011, the CIA’s Office of Public Affairs (OPA) was involved in at least 22 of the U.S. entertainment industry’s projects. Some of the productions included the films Argo and Zero Dark Thirty and television shows like Top Chef and Covert Affairs. We spend extra time on "The Recruit" which was written originally by Mark.

The CIA is intertwined in culture. This includes a serious influence in the modern art movements and relationships with the Museum of Modern Art and more in the midst of the Cold War.
