“At the time of the break-in we were fed a media version. Watergate was actually the take-down of Nixon and we were all fooled. We have been fooled about many events over the years, e.g., Chappaquiddick, TWA800,Lee Harvey Oswald, on and on.”
No, we were NOT all fooled. I was fooled about none of those hoaxes, because from an early age (8-12) my parents were proactive about finding alternative news sources, and fully understood that the network news outlets were propaganda tools.
If you are serious about gathering enemy intel, try this: Imagine you are a spy for the good guys, and your job is to learn what the enemy is planning and anticipate their strategies.
The first thing you need to know is that there are two sets of information you can gather from the enemy; the things they want you to know and the things they do not want you to know.
That’s right. The enemy knows you are looking for intel on them, so of course they will try to take advantage by feeding you false intel disguised as real intel.
So as an intelligence gatherer for the good guys, your most important skill is being able to distinguish which enemy intel is the fake stuff they want you to hear, and which is the real secrets they don’t want you to k is about.
So wit that in mind, let me ask you: when an enemy spokesperson like John Dean goes on CNN and says the bogus immunity case against Trump is “very powerful” - which kind of intel do think he just revealed - real or fake? Is he stating what the enemy thinks, or what the enemy wants YOU to think the enemy thinks?
Three guesses, and the first two don’t count.
You people think think that by quoting what the enemy says on CNN you are gathering enemy intel - when actually, you are being fed counter-intelligence I formation and getting fooled into spreading for the enemy.
I can't figure out how you came to that conclusion based on what I posted.
