Reagan Documents Shed Light on U.S. ‘Meddling’
Reagan Documents Shed Light on U.S. ‘Meddling’ Special Report: “Secret” documents from the Reagan administration show how the U.S. embedded “political action,” i.e., the manipulation of foreign governments, in ostensibly well-meaning organizations, reports Robert Parry. “Secret” documents, recently declassified by the Reagan presidential library, reveal senior White House officials reengaging a former CIA “proprietary,” The […]
U.N. Enablers of ‘Aggressive War’
U.N. Enablers of ‘Aggressive War’ Special Report: U.N. investigative reports, like a new one condemning Syria for alleged sarin use, are received as impartial and credible, but are often just more war propaganda from compromised bureaucrats, reports Robert Parry. Many people still want to believe that the United Nations engages in impartial investigations and thus […]
How ‘Regime Change’ Wars Led to Korea Crisis
How ‘Regime Change’ Wars Led to Korea Crisis Exclusive: The U.S.-led aggressions against Iraq and Libya are two war crimes that keep on costing, with their grim examples of what happens to leaders who get rid of WMDs driving the scary showdown with North Korea, writes Robert Parry. It is a popular meme in the […]
MSM, Still Living in Propaganda-ville
MSM, Still Living in Propaganda-ville Exclusive: The stakes in U.S.-Russia relations could not be higher – possible nuclear conflagration and the end of civilization – but the U.S. mainstream media is still slouching around in “propaganda-ville,” says Robert Parry. As much as the U.S. mainstream media wants people to believe that it is the Guardian […]
US Journalism’s New ‘Golden Age’?
US Journalism’s New ‘Golden Age’? Exclusive: The Washington Post and other big media are hailing a new journalistic “golden age” as they punish President Trump for disparaging them, but is this media bias a sign of good journalism or itself a scandal, asks Robert Parry. The mainstream U.S. media is congratulating itself on its courageous […]
NYT Cheers the Rise of Censorship Algorithms
NYT Cheers the Rise of Censorship Algorithms Exclusive: The New York Times is cheering on the Orwellian future for Western “democracy” in which algorithms quickly hunt down and eliminate information that the Times and other mainstream outlets don’t like, reports Robert Parry. Just days after sporting First Amendment pins at the White House Correspondents Dinner […]
The Existential Question of Whom to Trust
The Existential Question of Whom to Trust Special Report: An existential question facing humankind is whom can be trusted to describe the world and its conflicts, especially since mainstream experts have surrendered to careerism, writes Robert Parry. The looming threat of World War III, a potential extermination event for the human species, is made more […]
Trump’s ‘Wag the Dog’ Moment
Trump’s ‘Wag the Dog’ Moment Exclusive: President Trump earned neocon applause for his hasty decision to attack Syria and kill about a dozen Syrians, but his rash act has all the earmarks of a “wag the dog” moment, reports Robert Parry. Just two days after news broke of an alleged poison-gas attack in northern Syria, […]
Another Dangerous Rush to Judgment in Syria
Another Dangerous Rush to Judgment in Syria Exclusive: The U.S. government and the mainstream media rushed to judgment again, blaming the Syrian government for a new poison-gas attack and ignoring other possibilities, reports Robert Parry. With the latest hasty judgment about Tuesday’s poison-gas deaths in a rebel-held area of northern Syria, the mainstream U.S. news […]
Fresh Doubts about Russian ‘Hacking’
Fresh Doubts about Russian ‘Hacking’ Exclusive: The gauzy allegations of Russia “hacking” the Democrats to elect Donald Trump just got hazier with WikiLeaks’ new revelations about CIA cyber-spying and the capability to pin the blame on others, reports Robert Parry. WikiLeaks’ disclosure of documents revealing CIA cyber-spying capabilities underscores why much more skepticism should have been applied to […]
Reasons to Risk Nuclear Annihilation
Reasons to Risk Nuclear Annihilation Exclusive: The latest neocon/liberal-hawk scheme is for the U.S. population to risk nuclear war to protect corrupt politicians in Ukraine and Al Qaeda terrorists in east Aleppo, two rather dubious reasons to end life on the planet, says Robert Parry. Obviously, I never wanted to see a nuclear war, which would […]
Getting Fooled on Iraq, Libya, Now Russia
Getting Fooled on Iraq, Libya, Now Russia Exclusive: After the British report exposing falsehoods to justify invading Iraq in 2003, a new U.K. inquiry found similar misconduct in the 2011 attack on Libya, but no lessons are learned for the West’s new propaganda about Russia, writes Robert Parry. A British parliamentary inquiry into the Libyan fiasco […]
‘Yats’ Is No Longer the Guy
‘Yats’ Is No Longer the Guy Exclusive: Several weeks before Ukraine’s 2014 coup, U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Nuland had already picked Arseniy Yatsenyuk to be the future leader, but now “Yats” is no longer the guy, writes Robert Parry. In reporting on the resignation of Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk, the major U.S. newspapers either […]
The American Media Is A CIA Front
The American Media Is A CIA Front I reported honestly the facts of the US coup that overthrew the elected Ukrainian government in 2014 (see my columns in February and March 2014). However, the US print and TV media, led by the New York Times, lied through their teeth. Indeed, the “mainstream” US media functioned […]
A Media Unmoored from Facts
A Media Unmoored from Facts Exclusive: Mainstream U.S. journalism has completely lost its way, especially in dealing with foreign policy issues where bias now overwhelms any commitment to facts, a dangerous development, writes Robert Parry. Several weeks ago, I received a phone call from legendary investigative reporter Seymour Hersh who had seen one of my recent stories about […]
