class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For about 70 years the CIA has been undermining a free press.&nbsp;&nbsp;It began with Operation Mockingbird, a Cold War operation against communism.&nbsp;&nbsp;The CIA recruited journalists into a propaganda network.&nbsp;&nbsp;The CIA paid journalists to write fake stories or to publish stories written by the CIA in order to control explanations that served the agency\u2019s agendas.&nbsp;&nbsp;Student and cultural organizations and intellectual magazines, such as Encounter, were suborned into the CIA\u2019s propaganda network.&nbsp;&nbsp;Thanks to the German journalist, Udo Ulfkotte, we know that every European journalist of any significance is a CIA asset.&nbsp;&nbsp;In 1977 Carl Bernstein of Watergate fame wrote in Rolling Stone that the CIA \u201chas secretly bankrolled numerous foreign press services, periodicals and newspapers\u2014both English and foreign language\u2014which provided excellent cover for CIA operatives.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;Like most other people, Western journalists were all too willing to sell out their integrity for money.&nbsp;&nbsp;The few who were not were blackmailed into submission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The few honest journalists who remain have been forced out of the \u201cmainstream\u201d or presstitute media onto Internet websites.\u00a0\u00a0Wikileaks is by far the best news organization of our time.\u00a0\u00a0To bring this organization to heel Washington, using its Swedish, British, and Ecuadoran vassals, has persecuted Wikileaks\u2019 founder, Julian Assange, for years.\u00a0\u00a0The CIA\u2019s media vassals, including the New York Times and The Guardian, both of which published the material leaked to Wikileaks that is being used to destroy Assange, have joined wholeheartedly in the persecution of the World\u2019s Best and Most Honest Journalist.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Currently Assange is being tortured, apparently to death, while bring held in solitary confinement in a maximum security British prison awaiting his extradition to the US on false charges.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u2026click on the above link to read the rest of the
