German Journalist Blows Whistle On How The CIA Controls The Media

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Submitted by Michael Krieger via Liberty Blitzkrieg blog,

“I was bribed by billionaires, I was bribed by the Americans to report…not exactly the truth.”

 

- Udo Ulfkotte, a former editor of one of Germany’s main daily publications, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

Some readers will see this and immediately dismiss it as Russian propaganda since the interview appeared on RT. This would be a serious mistake.

Whether you want to admit it or not, CIA control of the media in the U.S. and abroad is not conspiracy theory, it is conspiracy fact.

Carl Bernstein, who is best known for his reporting on Watergate, penned a 25,000 word article in Rolling Stone after spending six months looking at the relationship of the CIA and the press during the Cold War years. Below is an excerpt, but you can read the entire thing here.

In 1953, Joseph Alsop, then one of America’s leading syndicated columnists, went to the Philippines to cover an election. He did not go because he was asked to do so by his syndicate. He did not go because he was asked to do so by the newspapers that printed his column. He went at the request of the CIA.

 

Alsop is one of more than 400 American journalists who in the past twenty?five years have secretly carried out assignments for the Central Intelligence Agency, according to documents on file at CIA headquarters. Some of these journalists’ relationships with the Agency were tacit; some were explicit. There was cooperation, accommodation and overlap. Journalists provided a full range of clandestine services—from simple intelligence gathering to serving as go?betweens with spies in Communist countries.

 

Reporters shared their notebooks with the CIA. Editors shared their staffs. Some of the journalists were Pulitzer Prize winners, distinguished reporters who considered themselves ambassadors without?portfolio for their country. Most were less exalted: foreign correspondents who found that their association with the Agency helped their work; stringers and freelancers who were as interested in the derring?do of the spy business as in filing articles; and, the smallest category, full?time CIA employees masquerading as journalists abroad.

 

In many instances, CIA documents show, journalists were engaged to perform tasks for the CIA with the consent of the managements of America’s leading news organizations.

Like any good intelligence agency, the CIA learned from its mistakes upon being exposed, and has since adjusted tactics. This is where the concept of “non-official cover” comes into play. The term was recently described by German journalist Udo Ulfkotte, in a blistering RT interview. Mr. Ulfkotte was previously a respected journalist for one of Germany’s main dailies, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ), so he is no small fry.

“Non-official cover” occurs when a journalist is essentially working for the CIA, but it’s not in an official capacity. This allows both parties to reap the rewards of the partnership, while at the same time giving both sides plausible deniability. The CIA will find young journalists and mentor them. Suddenly doors will open up, rewards will be given, and before you know it, you owe your entire career to them. That’s essentially how it works. But don’t take it from me…

 

If this peaked your curiosity, read about Operation Mockingbird.

Mary Pinchot Meyer, JFK Mistress, Assassinated By CIA, New Book Says

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/19/mary-pinchot-meyer-jfk-mistress...

Her husband Cord Meyer ran Operation Mockingbird.  She was a ditz who was interested in LSD and sex with JFK. 

Also missing from the history books is a diary that Meyer is said to have kept, which her brother-in-law at the time, Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee, sought to retrieve sometime in the 24 hours after her death. Bradlee said the diary contained mostly sketches, but Janney said he believes it held a detailed account of her affair with Kennedy, and may have revealed who might have wanted her killed.

Ok, that's three, but warranted. That wormy CIA fag has shined every nob at Langly. I really liked his green screen work at Sandy Hook, too. The CIA just isn't that good anymore. This shit is too easy to spot.
Another fun example. Press Secretary...

The CIA has owned the media since the 1950s and Operation Mockingbird:

"You could get a journalist cheaper than a good call girl, for a couple hundred dollars a month." - CIA operative discussing with Philip Graham, editor Washington Post, on the availability and prices of journalists willing to peddle CIA propaganda and cover stories. "Katherine The Great," by Deborah Davis (New York: Sheridan Square Press, 1991)

 

"The Central Intelligence Agency owns everyone of any significance in the major media." -- William Colby, former CIA Director, cited by Dave Mcgowan, Derailing Democracy

 

Since the beginning of the week, the three most influential mass circulation newsmagazines of the United States, Britain, and Germany—Time, The Economist, and Der Spiegel—have published cover stories that combine wild accusations against Vladimir Putin with demands for a showdown with Russia.

The most striking and obvious characteristic of these cover stories is that they are virtually identical. The CIA has scripted them all. The stories employ the same insults and the same fabrications. They denounce Putin’s “web of lies.” The Russian president is portrayed as a “depraved” mass murderer.

But how about this former CIA agent?

Robert David Steele, 62, is a former CIA clandestine services case officer. . . Steele confirms everything FOTM has said about the Sandy Hook school massacre on December 14, 2012, and the Boston Marathon bombings on April 15, 2013 — that they were false flag events.

A “false flag” event is some traumatic public incident that is:

  • False: The public are given an untruthful version of the event by the government and the media. The falsity can range from no one actually had been killed or hurt (it was all theater); to some of the alleged victims are real; to all the alleged victims are real but the alleged perpetrator(s) is a fall guy who was set up by the “real” conspirators behind the scenes.
  • Results in a “rallying around the flag” effect: Whatever the true nature of the “false flag” event, the objective is to arouse and manipulate the emotions (fear, anger, outrage, indignation) of the American people so that they’ll “rally around the flag” in an outburst of patriotism, supplying the current White House occupant and his (and his party’s) policies with their support and loyalty.

 

“From where I sit, both the [Sandy Hook Elementary] school in Connecticut and the Boston Bombing were false flag operations.

“The school in Connecticut had been closed for years. There were no students, no teachers, no parent-teacher associations. The paramedics were not allowed into the school. From where I sit, that was a complete false flag. It was a drill. But … others have exposed the actors who were involved, financial relations with the families that were allegedly victimized, who had their homes bought and were then given exit pass. All of that is on the record, but you don’t see the media covering that.”

Perhaps he'll get a new alias and log on to tell what happened... though I seem to recall him saying he'd been keeping his ZH time down... so maybe he won't bother.

Or maybe 'Tyler' can come clean.

If the CIA offered me a bribe I would probably take it because the alternative might be suicide or a car accident- RIP Gary Web and Michael Hastings. Perhaps he is coming out now because the climate seems right. There are enough people who would believe him today-even in the comment section of NY Times articles you see people trashing this group of thugs. This agency serves some group but it isn't the American people. I wish I could choose where my tax dollars were spent- they and the other 15 intelligence agencies would get zero. I would be safer without all of them.

you're a kid or some wanker. any job with serious responsibility carries secrets that can compromise your ability to pay your mortgage if the secrets are divulged. it is amazing how much motivation food, clothing and shelter provide for a middle aged man to do what he needs to do to provide them.

I'm the Corporate Controller for fifty entities employing about 250 people with locations in So. California, Arizona and Nevada.

I presume I have some serious responsibilities.

I don't have any secrets (other than I prefer to remain anonymous here)...everything I do is above board and I can talk openly about them.

And I'm no longer a 'middle aged man'.  I'm in that period where I should be building wealth and getting ready for retirement.

I have no wealth to build on.  My savings took a solid shit in 2008 and I refuse to pour more into the cess pool.  I no longer trust banks, the stock market, or any other financial institution...including the FED and the US Government.  I doubt I will see a dollar of my contributions to Social Security.

While I am investigating the refinancing of my home from 7.5% to 3.8%...my mortgage payments, according to the amortization schedule, are paid into 2018 and I've adjusted my aggressiveness to force the mortgage servicer to recognize payments in advance.

In June, my asshole, useless, piece of shit brother in law died.  I was content to kick his corpse to the side of a road...my wife, however, placed a demand that he get buried.  Over the last three months my pay has been cut in half to cover his sorry ass with dirt.  In the meantime we've used what we did when we were first married and flat, fucking, broke...we did without.  Luckily we had some stores in place.  But I'm pretty pissed about missing my beer and tequila over this asshole.

I'll get over it.  But do not underestimate what can be done to do the seemingly impossible.  I just fucking did it.

Ronald Reagan was an actor by trade.   Why didn't you mention Ronald Reagan?

"Ronald Reagan was an actor by trade.   Why didn't you mention Ronald Reagan? "

First, because I have little evidence as to the fact.

Second, because he was more of a tool, like Carter, of the elites' Pentagon wing of power.

The CIA wing nearly succeeded in assassinating Reagan to get their guy, Bush Sr., into the Oval Office of the Puppet in Chief.

An American, not US subject.

 

Note: If one goes back to the release of the Pentagon Papers and works forward, he will find a tit-for-tat battle between the CIA and Pentagon wings of power--Pentagon Papers (CIA Op.), Watergate (Pentagon Op.), NSA leaks and Church Committee (CIA), New info and House investigation of the JFK assassination (Pentagon), 1983 bombing and killing of soldiers in Beirut (CIA), Iran-Contra revelations (Pentagon), gutting of the Pentagon's bases and power base in Europe and States during and after the Gulf War (CIA).

The CIA has now gained the upper hand by having 3 of the last four presidents actually be beholden to them. Bush Jr. was supposed to, but became co-opted by the Pentagon. Under Obama they have been gutting and replacing the Pentagon leadership further via firings of top brass, the take down of McChrystal and the wonderfully executed take down of Petraeus via the fake job at CIA (Compare the fates of Patraeus vs. that of Clapper). They are now in the process of taking over the Pentagon's main spying apparatus, the NSA, via the controlled Snowden "leaks" with "damage control" being handled by CIA asset Obama in the Oval Office.

Coming up next will be two years of scandals against Obama personally and the admin generally. Just like the last two years of CIA-Clinton's admin. The propaganda media is already beginning to morph over to the "critical" side of things, especially the CIA's mouthpiece, the NYT (The Pentagon's mouthpiece, the Washington Post, was neutered and "bought" in 2013). Look for more scandals and a huge one involving Obama's homosexuality over the next two years. In this way the CIA and the neo-cons can reinvigorate the right-wing, neo-con, evangelical Christian sheeple and seize power again in 2016. Another sign of this is and will be the coming out of the woodwork of prior neo-con organs like, Rove, Panetta, Cheney, Bush Jr., Wolfowitz*, Rush, Beck, etc.

well, the CIA and the German spooks, had a deal to monitor French company EADS making Airbus, back a few years. It was in their common interest as Germany wanted more inside info on Eads, its partner under French control, and CIA wanted to have a lookie into Boeing's chief rival.

So everybody is everbody's buddy, according to the principle of Machiavelli's Prince, where the enemy --or potential enemy-- of my enemy, is my "temporary" friend.

Until "thieves" fall out and the NSA/CIA starts spying on Mutti and organising the "kontrol" of Ukraine and Poland according to Zbi's global chess game. 

Wheels within wheels. The Stasi did not invent anything.

In fact the Venetian Segreta-- secret service-- was he first to use commerce and spying on Ottomans to achieve their aims. Charles V Inquisitorial services were their local rivals. Until Venice and Empire fought side by side at Lepanto. 

The enemy of my enemy...what a dirty but lucrative game that's shown to be, as History proves --with El Lawrence of "seven pillars of wisdom" fame; Colonial office spy who delivered the Arabs on a plate to the Sykes-Picot divide of Ottoman collapse.

Whats new in Mesopotamia where these games continue... or in Homeland of CIA, the new Segreta and/or the new Inquisitorial Order of  Universal Empire!

A key question.

One would assume the same thing happens here, but the CIA is not allowed by law to control Americans the way we give them the right to control the other 95% of the world.  (And to "drone" them if they don't like it.)  

That's what makes us special, isn't it? (In our dreams.)

But actually, judging from the results, they must be doing it in some other guise.  

Hey American journalists out there?  We need some serious whistleblowing on this side of the Pond too!

Sooner or later my gut will filter out my reality or truth. Watching the global actors play among each other often will give away their secrets of manipulation.

Note that just because they say they're CIA, doesn't mean they are:

A series of CIA memos describes how Israeli Mossad agents posed as American spies to recruit members of the terrorist organization Jundallah to fight their covert war against Iran.

 

 

 

By the way - if you don't believe the official narrative of 9/11, you are dismissed as a nut by many, if fewer and fewer people each year.  If you also note Israel's likely role, added to this is the charge, of course, of anti-Semitism.

 

But if you do as you're told and stick to the official 9/11 narrative - you are still left with a question. 2 of the major figures, bin Laden and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed - both cited Israel and its treatment of the indigenous Palestinian people, and US support thereof, as a major reason for the attack - yet this was essentially never, ever discussed in the media.

 

You're probably tired of 9/11 articles - but you'll want to read this one by Ray McGovern from a few years back.

... If you’ve read down this far, you will not be surprised that the FCM ignored the Defense Science Board findings for two months. On Nov. 24, 2004, The New York Times, erstwhile “newspaper of record,” finally published a story on the report — but only after some highly instructive surgery.

Thom Shanker of the Times quoted the paragraph beginning with "Muslims do not 'hate our freedom'" (see above), but he or his editors deliberately cut out the following sentence about what Muslims do object to, i.e., "what they see as one-sided support in favor of Israel and against Palestinian rights" and support for tyrannical regimes.

The Times did include the sentence that immediately followed the omitted one. In other words, it was not simply a matter of shortening the paragraph. Rather, the offending middle sentence fell victim to the “delete” key. ...

I personally recall seeing the Donald Rumsfeld character in "Eneny of The State" was born on 9-11. Jon Voight, that Zio apologist played him. Just getting you up to speed, Mike

I work in the msm and among the regular press mongrels. They are either mass com losers looking to make themselves divas (men or women), or reporters who flunked out of larger markets and fell back to something less challenging.

The last station I worked for had zero journalists on its payroll for my tenure and the five years prior. Except for me.

The CIA need not infiltrate msm because it's already uprooted itself, split the logs, seasoned the wood and set the kindling. Just waiting for a little spark. (Maybe the CIA is the tinder?)
