In reply to the discussion: Treasure trove of JFK, LBJ documents declassified by CIA [View all]Octafish
(55,745 posts)28. ''Obssessive'' is a psychoanalytic term. Like ''Infatuated.''
They can be used to discredit people. Did you know CIA encourages its "assets in the media" to use it on critics of the Warren Commission?
b. To employ propaganda assets to and refute the attacks of the critics. Book reviews and feature articles are particularly appropriate for this purpose. The unclassified attachments to this guidance should provide useful background material for passing to assets. Our ploy should point out, as applicable, that the critics are (I) wedded to theories adopted before the evidence was in, (II) politically interested, (III) financially interested, (IV) hasty and inaccurate in their research, or (V) infatuated with their own theories. In the course of discussions of the whole phenomenon of criticism, a useful strategy may be to single out Epstein's theory for attack, using the attached Fletcher article and Spectator piece for background. (Although Mark Lane's book is much less convincing that Epstein's and comes off badly where confronted by knowledgeable critics, it is also much more difficult to answer as a whole, as one becomes lost in a morass of unrelated details.)

It would be wonderful if some of these "documents" included names of those who would do harm.
