Rules Of Disinformation Number 1. Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil Regardless of what you know, don't discuss it -- especially if you are a public figure, news anchor, etc. If it's not reported, it didn't happen, and you never have to deal with the issues.
Example: Media was present in the courtroom (Hunt vs. Liberty Lobby) when CIA agent
Marita Lorenz
'confession' testimony regarding CIA direct participation in the planning and
assassination of John Kennedy was revealed. All media reported was that E. Howard Hunt
lost his libel case against Liberty Lobby (Liberty Lobby's newspaper, The Spotlight, had
reported Hunt was in Dallas that day and were sued for the story). See Mark Lane's
remarkable book, Plausible Denial, for the full confessional transcript.
Proper response: There is no possible response unless you are aware of the material and can make it public yourself.. In any such attempt, be certain to target any known silent party as likely complicit in a cover up. In this case, it would be the entire Time-Warner Media Group, among others. This author is relatively certain that reporters were hand-picked to cover this case from among those having intelligence community ties.
