Does the CIA Create Our Reality?
Today's report is based on a Hagmann Report radio show episode. Does the CIA indeed create our reality? I cover this subject in my new book, Soul-less Society: The Ultimate Deception That Took The Land of Plenty to A Nation of Death.
Can we believe anything that we see on TV, the news or really any programs we see? I'm getting more skeptical by the day.
Doug Hagmann had a guest on his program, radio host, Scotty Saks, of Sovereign Radio. He told some interesting stories regarding the CIA; he's been in the media business for decades. One story was regarding the CIA and its role in our daily media consumption.
Saks tells a story about when he visited a CBS television news director the day after the Ferguson, Michael Brown story broke. The talking points the media was given to disseminate was that Brown was employed, he'd found the Lord, and he was going to church.

Other media reports stated that Michael Brown had just done a drug deal at a convenience store when the police confronted him. A CBS reporter talked to many of the neighbors and many of his classmates. He had dropped out of high school.
The news director was a friend of Saks. While he was visiting him that day, there were talking points issued that were to be broadcast--they were counter to the information a reporter had discovered while covering the story. The news director said the talking points regarding the Michael Brown story were B.S.
Saks was in the office when the news director called his boss to find out why they weren’t using their reporter’s information. He told his boss that he approved the budget to send their best reporter and cameraman to Ferguson. They got the story and it was nothing like what's was in the talking points. He asked, “Why did you approve the budget to send our crew if you're going to put this crap in front of me and tell me to run the story this way?”
His boss's answer was, “If I remember correctly, you have two sons to put through college. You'll run the talking points on the memo,” and he hung up on the phone.
Saks later asked the news director, “Who wrote these talking points?” He said, he couldn’t really talk about it. At Sak’s persistence, the news director eventually said they were from a “three letter agency.”
Who could it be? Saks guessed, FBI. The news director said, “the other one that begins with a C.”
Saks said, he ran over to his desk. There was an official federal government label on the paper. He couldn't read it, but told him that memo came from the CIA.
Saks said news organizations receive what is called, the 4:00 a.m. talking points. They've been around for 50 years.
Those talking points are already on their desk and sitting there by 4 a.m. and they know, this is what they are supposed to roll out on the news that day.
I interviewed Jay Dyer, author of the book, Esoteric Hollywood: Sex, Cults and Symbols in Film. He has studied many forms of film and media and has uncovered what he believes are the true, insidious and mysterious messages and symbolism that are disseminated through the Hollywood empire and fed to an unaware public that is seemingly willing to lap it all up.
In his book, Dyer he dedicated a chapter to this subject called, The CIA and Hollywood—A Dark Marriage, in which he takes a quote from the Los Angeles Times that reveals the CIA and the role they play in some Hollywood projects.
“The CIA has long had a special relationship with the entertainment industry, devoting considerable attention to fostering relationships with Hollywood movers and shakers – studio executives, producers, directors, big-name actors.
John Rizzo, the former acting CIA general counsel, wrote in his new book, Company Man: Thirty Years of Crisis and Controversy in the CIA…
‘The CIA has officials assigned full-time to the care and feeding of Hollywood assets, Rizzo wrote. Other former CIA officials added that some of those operatives work in the Los Angeles office of an agency department called the National Resources Division, which recruits people in the U.S. to help America spy abroad.’”
When I was in college studying media, we had this great book that we had to read by Neil Postman, and it was called Amusing Ourselves to Death. Postman talks about what he calls the news of the day. He said that top of mind issues only exist in the world of entertainment and that the industry created the top of mind phrase so that they could use it to push out the reality that they wanted you to take in, that they wanted you to perceive the world and the top of mind issues of the day. And they're still doing that today.
Postman said that the news of the day or the top news of the day didn't even exist until television came on the scene.
You think about everything that's your perception. If you're conservative, your perception is going to be completely different than somebody who's more of a liberal minded perception. And our thoughts are being programmed by the outside images and information that we take in.
So you really do have a choice as to what rubbish of the day you want to take in or not take in.
It only becomes our reality if we allow our minds to entertain it.
