Kill Mockingbird: One-Page Document PROVES CIA has been Targeting Citizens Through Media
Operation Mockingbird is real and refers to elements within the U.S. intelligence community that co-opted, coerced, and compromised journalists, media outlets and large conglomerates to shape public narratives and propagandize the American public. While the full scope of the alleged program remains disputed, the broader question of government influence over the media continues to spark debate.
Author of the New Book Deep Cover, Shallow Graves, Robert “Tosh” Plumlee, was in Dealy Plaza as a CIA Pilot and watched JFK’s assassination, was victimized by this operation when his house burned to the ground in 1981 with highly explosive documents inside. The document below shows exactly how it was done. The CIA became a “CLIENT” of Broadcast Information Services, which owned KBTV Channel 9 at the time. The obvious intent of the news report filed by Reporter Ed Sardella was to portray Plumlee as a paranoid conspiracy theorist.
