CIA planning docs show when they overthrew the Guatemalan president in 1954, they plotted planting "flying saucer" stories to distract the media. (media.mas.to)

Another declassified study shows the Air Force misled the public in the 1950s about UFOs to conceal the CIA's spy plane testing.

I wanted to read the original source of this, and went down a rabbit hole. this doc here details the lies that they would tell the American people. There's another one where they openly talk about telling the media what to say. And a follow up here and here. Also a nice review of a conservative radio host doing what he was told.

But I think that the cherry on top is this telegram with instructions for local media. One of the talking points that they want them to talk about are communist attacks on the free press. You can't make that shit up.

I never did find the original document (there are a LOT of telegrams to go through), and I'm tired of reading about these scumbags. It's all there in black and white, plain as day. Why do the liberals keep on believing what these assholes have to say?
