Targeted Disinformation
Feeding disinformation to UFO seekers was one of the duties Richard Doty was tasked with when he worked in the Air Force’s Office of Special Investigations. He talks with Emery Smith about a remarkable case that involved Paul Bennewitz who intercepted classified transmissions thinking they were of alien origin. Doty and his team worked to find out what he had and then reinforced his otherworldy convictions. But when Bennewitz came across a real UFO, the game changed. Doty discusses why disinformation gambits are necessary and who is targeted. Plus, he shares details of an extraterrestrial case that became catastrophic for the military.
