In 2007, FBI sent malware via a link intended to look like a Seattle Times/AP story. At pages 61-62. FBI impersonating Seattle Times to implant malware brings a whole new meaning to using journalism as a cover.
FBI impersonating Seattle Times to implant malware - Michael Barwell - 28-10-2014
I'm just into the chapter relevant to spook news manipulation of the global village idiot in the book Flat Earth News; essential reading, if depressing, Chap.6 - The Propaganda Puzzle:
(Of news manipulation-) "We can see this best by looking back at the way the agency [CIA] ran it's propaganda during the cold war. There, at least, we have enough solid information to see the way in which the subterfuge worked. Almost all this information comes from two 1976 congressional inquiries, chaired by Senator Frank Church and Congressman Otis Pike; and from two defining works of investigative reporting in late 1977, by Carl Bernstein in Rolling Stone magazine and by John Crewdson and Joseph Treatser in the New York Times."
Odd thing about this, is that I'd never heard of these, but 'church' & 'pike' have been very frequent references I've had for at least a couple of years.
