The Oversight Project has released a report detailing how Netflix uses its cozy relationship with federal law enforcement and the intelligence community to spread propaganda and advance ideological social engineering under the guise of entertainment. Netflix’s relationships and practices has earned it the nickname “FedFlix.”
The Oversight Project has conducted a thorough investigation of publicly available documents, including FOIA returns, court filings, and open source research. We applied our considerable investigative and legal experience to conclude that Netflix’s content and key personnel advance radical left-wing political ideologies that demean traditional American values. These findings are particularly alarming in the broader market contents. Netflix reaches at least 325 million subscribers worldwide, effectively shaping the beliefs, values, and political attitudes of entire generations. Should Netflix acquire (the studio, film, and television libraries of) Warner Bros. Discovery, this market share and attendant reach will skyrocket.
We also concluded based on our analysis of existing data that the use of the media as propaganda to advance a left-wing ideological agenda sweeps through most of the entertainment industry. We concluded that Operation Mockingbird, a CIA-sponsored domestic propaganda campaign from the Cold War never really ended, it just evolved. We explain from all available evidence how government agencies use the “approval” process of offices, like the FBI Office of Public Affairs, that gives production companies access to the FBI’s expertise in exchange for content modification and editing. We detail multiple examples in which the FBI and other intelligence agencies engaged in blatant content modification to establish a particular narrative in certain productions.
Oversight Project’s key findings include:
* The FBI exercises significant influence, even content control, over Hollywood publications that relate to the FBI. In J. Edgar Hoover’s tradition, the FBI’s content control practices include pre-approving scripts, shaping narratives, binding agreements, and exercising effective veto power over what gets produced with FBI assistance.
* Director of National Intelligence Tusli Gabbard publicly confirmed in July 2025 that Operation Mockingbird-type activities never ended. They continue to operate today, with intelligence operatives still actively colluding with left-wing media outlets to influence public and elected leaders with favored, misleading, and even false narratives.
* Netflix’s Board of Directors is largely composed of highly partisan Democratic operatives and donors, and like-minded elites.
* The preliminary analysis of titles in the Netflix library reflects a predominantly left-wing orientation in content, particularly on cultural and social issues, that advance social engineering. One study found that 41% of G-rated series, and 41% of TV-Y7-rated series on Netflix contain sexual perversion promoting content.
* Netflix airs and produces content that has been slavishly pro-FBI and intelligence community, anti-populist, and pro-left wing politicians and causes.
* The Oversight Project’s review of the OneTaste prosecution revealed that the FBI, or persons acting on behalf of the FBI, appears to have collaborated in some capacity with Netflix in its production of “Orgasm Inc: The Story of OneTaste” (2022).
The Oversight Project recommends:
* Relevant federal agencies must carefully scrutinize any potential Netflix acquisitions of other media and entertainment companies to take into account the full ramifications of the impacts on American society and the health of the Constitutional Republic.
* Full declassification and release, in unredacted form, all operation Mockingbird-related records and any ongoing collusion between Netflix, Hollywood and government actors, particularly from law enforcement, intelligence, and defense actors.
* Congressional and Executive Branch investigations of FBI, CIA, and the Department of War (“DOW”) involvement in content production, including subpoenaing all agreements, communications, and collaboration between these entities and Netflix.
* Elimination of taxpayer subsidies for propaganda content through legislation.
* Mandate transparency requirements for government-media collaboration, and restore the Smith-Mundt Act, with modernizations, to ban any federal agency or entity from generating or distributing propaganda to the American public.
* Protection of whistleblowers who expose these practices.
* Defund and disband the FBI’s Office of Public Affairs Long Form Team and similar teams at the CIA and DOW.

Big Streaming is designed to push its propaganda against conservatives and destroy distribution of material against their ideology.
The Supreme Court's situation in "HBO v. United States" (where an anti-siphoning rule was declared unconstitutional) should be revisited. Similar rules are in effect in the UK and Australian television. Formula One, for example, has a CBS Sports-produced broadcast for the Australian Grand Prix on CBS-owned Network Ten when DAZN has rights to other races. In the UK, Channel 4 has the British Grand Prix when Sky has the other races and 4 has a highlights package. In the United States, all races are exclusively on an Apple premium tier -- even domestic races -- and they can effectively deny media access to anyone they wish. This is why Saturday's Formula E race at Hard Rock Stadium (moved from Homestead this season) could have more viewers than any F1 race in the United States.
During the Biden Administration, they let Netflix have the FIFA Women's World Cup, which was designed to taunt conservatives by having elite PPV's take over. It was saying "must buy porn to watch our games".

Pathetic what we’ve allowed TV to do to us.
If only there was a Republican President with his own people heading these agencies so as to shut down the mockingbirds.
Does this mean that Netflix breaks into our homes and force feeds their programming down our throats as if we are in A Clockwork Orange?
This story reminds me of Tipper Gore taking on the music industry.
Why we have no TV and cancelled CommieFlix a decade ago.
Pure Obama commie garbage. Do not let it in your house.
Netflix exists to feed the disgusting lower class. Provide obcensity riddled content. Advance everything but the traditional American norm.
I dropped my netflix when they started preferring foreign made films and actors over America ones in their menus.
A lot of words but nearly zilch actual examples in spite of the words claiming the activities are so very pervasive.
