 I posted these a while back: BLACK - aka black disinfo is from a source claiming to be another source So for example, a piece of text about Hubbard being admitted as a blood brother is being attributed to a representative body of the blackfoot tribe, while the real source is just this one single native American guy who happens to be a scientologist. That's black propaganda. GREY - It is a source that remains unclear, unattributed or murky by design. So a piece of CoS text can claim: "Crime in Malaysia has dropped 00% in the last year", without saying where this info comes from. That's grey propaganda. WHITE - A source that openly and truthfully claims where it comes from. Example: CoS finds some sinister sounding document from the American Psychiatric Association. Then they re-publish it in some CoS magazine and claim it was written by the APA. That's white propaganda. TAN - That's similar to black propaganda, but more nuanced. That's a source attributed to one scientology entity (usually for internal use) that nevertheless originated from a different scientology entity. For example: A document is published as a testimony of a well known scientology member, while in reality it was written by or dictated by OSA and the member just rubber-stamped it. That's tan disinfo. BLACK & TANS - A disinformation packet prepared for internal use with black and tan propaganda. Usually it is the "hip hip, we are doing so darn well around the globe!" type thing. ACTIVE MEASURES - This term refers to unconventional methods used by OSA, what would in military terms be seen as special operations. From what I understand, hiring of PIs and things like the "squirrel busters" or sending fake animal abuse or fake child abuse claims against critics - that would all be considered "active measures". I do not have nor know the full list of active measures or their types etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Scientology is about control. It is about controlling people's behavior, their actions, their bank accounts - that's for sure. And controlling their minds, controlling what they think." - John Atack. Reactions:
