[…] (ESPAC) in London. Whether or not slavery is being practised in southern Sudan, these rebuttal efforts by ESPAC have exposed the Telegraph group’s role in yet more disinformation. At the ESPAC website < www.espac.org > there is a mass of documentation on this, the centrepiece of which is ‘Recycling lies: the strange case of […]
[…] of the paranoid right’s conspiracy fantasies, the Labour Cabinet was regarded with suspicion and many of its members, notably Wilson himself, were subjected to surveillance, burglaries and disinformation in this period. The anti-communist hysteria encompassed the formation of private militias – the so-called private armies – by former intelligence and military personnel, media speculation […]
Russ Kick (ed.), Disinformation, 2001, $19.95, ISBN 0-9664100-7-6. Available from http://store.disinfo.com. I once sat in on an interesting conversation between two well known writers on the underside of politics.

[…] has begun to resemble the literature of parapolitics. Increasingly the story is of the activities of putative agents of state, the intelligence and security agencies, and alleged disinformation and smear campaigns.

[…] citizen (and an Air Force supplier) he took his discoveries to the base authorities. The US Air Force responded by pretending to believe him and feeding him disinformation about UFOs and the US government’s alleged dealing with aliens disinformation which was then circulated among the UFO buffs in the US with the deadly […]
[…] opponents on the Left. (That last bit about the Left is a joke, by the way.) Like Crozier, Goldsmith was then obsessed with an alleged enormous Soviet disinformation offensive against the West.
