History is full of real events and investigations that uncover surprising truths. Sometimes, these truths get mixed up with ideas about secret plots and hidden control – what we call conspiracy theories. Operation Mockingbird is a fascinating example of a real historical investigation into government activity that also has a popular, but different, life as a widespread conspiracy theory.

During the Cold War, a long period of tension and rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union, both sides did many secret things to try and gain an advantage. Intelligence agencies were very active. Years later, investigations in the U.S. looked into some of these activities, and that’s where the story of “Operation Mockingbird” really begins, both as a documented set of findings and as a much larger, often very different, theory.
