413. A LIVELY CONVERSATION WITH ARTHUR KINOY (1990)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_Views
http://tinyurl.com/6z7efuu


A long time civil rights lawyer-activist and member of the National Lawyers
Guild, Kinoy has fought and won many legal fights at the national and local levels. He had an acrimonious appearance before the House Un-American Activities Committee, and he argued cases before the Supreme Court. In a colorful and vivid style, Arthur describes his battles, places civil liberties abuses by governmental agencies in historical perspective, and dramatically warns of the present-day dangers to American civil liberties,
as represented by Supreme Court decisions, by activities of the FBI and its allies, and by the FEMA plans for suspension of Constitutional rights and the imposition of a police state.

321. THE CIA, CONGRESS AND THE PRESS (1987)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_Views
http://tinyurl.com/AVvideo321

A documentary is presented in which former CIA employees and other people who have written about the CIA tell of the extent of penetration of the mass media by the CIA and how the media are used by that agency to manipulate public opinion. CIA whistleblowers such as John Stockwell relate how these operations actually were implemented in various covert actions in which they were involved around the world. At the conclusion of the film, we look with John Stockwell at some other specific instances of disinformation and compare these with the general practice of the American government, particularly in the Reagan Administration, to lie, to distort information, and to manipulate the press.

540. THE COMPANY AND THE COUNTRY: A CONVERSATION WITH PHIL AGEE (PART I)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_Views
http://tinyurl.com/dnyefl


Former CIA officer and best selling author Agee discusses his history in the CIA, and the CIA harassment of him after he quit the agency and decided to write his first book, "CIA Diary: Inside the Company." He also discusses
current events and other CIA operations.


"George Bush's father came in as C.I.A. director the month following the Welch assassination. As director he presided over the agency as they mounted a campaign throughout western Europe trying to make me appear to be a security threat, a traitor, a Soviet agent, a Cuban agent. All those sorts of things which led to my expulsion from five different NATO countries in the late 1970's. In fact it was in all based on lies, and to think that I was responsible for the death of any C.I.A. people for their exposures is absolutely false. No one as far as I know of all those people who were exposed as C.I.A. people along with their operations was ever even harassed or threatened. What happened was, their operations were disrupted and that was the purpose of what we were doing. We were right to do it then, because the U.S. policy at the time, executed by the C.I.A., was to support murderous dictatorships around the world, as in Vietnam, as in Greece, as in Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil. And that's only to name a few. We opposed that use of the U.S. intelligence service for those dirty operations. And I'm talking about regimes now that tortured and disappeared people by the thousands."

153. (NC) COVERT ACTION (Part I)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_Views
http://tinyurl.com/a54rtl

Our three-part series on covert action, featuring former CIA case officer
John R. Stockwell and Louis Wolf, (co-editor of Covert Action Information Bulletin) begins with an overview of the general nature and activities of the CIA. We then discuss how the "Intelligence Identities Protection Act" and the Reagan executive order on intelligence agencies would promote media
self-censorship and thus repress public scrutiny and criticism of intelligence (including FBI) activities -- including assassination plots, destabilization of foreign governments, and assorted "dirty tricks." John Stockwell explains how this legislation in effect amends the First Amendment
by abridging freedoms of speech and press -- without having gone through the constitutional amendment process.

The focus is on specific covert and overt activities of U.S. intelligence
agencies and their surrogates: the instruction in torture techniques to
Salvadoran army troops by U.S. Green Berets; the attempted coup in the
Seychelles Islands; the Argentine torture squads; the South African wars in
Angola and Namibia; the attempted Klan coup in Dominica; and attempts to
destabilize the Mozambique government -- all of which are reported in Louis
Wolf's "Covert Action Information Bulletin", which the U.S. government would
like to put out of business. We also discuss how CIA "disinformation"
tactics manipulate public opinion by planting stories in the press and by
financing and supporting right-wing newspapers.

396. EMILE de ANTONIO TAKES US BEHIND THE BUSH

Award winning documentary producer Emile de Antonio (See Alternative Views program 394. THE MEDIA & POLITICS: DIRTY TRICKS AND TRICKY DICKS) gives us considerable insight into the history of George Herber Walker Bush and the type of person he is. Having a background which has placed him in relationships with upper class people, de Antonio has special insight into people such as George Bush, particularly Bush's experience of being in Skull and Bones at Yale. Emile also provides us with information about Bush's long term activities with the CIA, his relationships with Panamanian leader Noriega, the Nicaraguan Contras, and his role in the "October Surprise" and elicit drug operations during the Reagan years.
