My favourite is the story that there was mass panic over a radio broadcast of War of the Worlds where everyone thought a real alien invasion was happening. I heard this story as a kid and really thought this was a cruel prank played by the radio station.
In reality, they made it clear at the beginning of the broadcast, and twice during, that it was fictional. Not that many people were listening and most of the people who were, were aware it wasn’t real. A few idiots freaked out and it somehow turned into a story of mass panic. It was propaganda by newspapers to discredit radio.
I belive [Remote viewing] (https://www.cia.gov/readingroom/docs/CIA-RDP96-00791R000200180005-5.pdf) is similar.
Except remote viewing was 20-30 years later, supported by data and which technology do you believe that was a cover for? That’s kind of a requisite in making these claims- there is some tech you are actually covering for.
I’m drawing parallels. Not saying remote viewing is to cover for radar.
Any technology that was being used to spy on the Russians.
I don’t need to be specific. The CIA were just looking for a way to explain how they received their intelligence information.
If remote viewing actually worked then it wouldn’t be declassified.
