Alternative Views - CIA On Company Business

Original air date: February 10, 1987<br />THE CIA: ON COMPANY BUSINESS<br />We once again examine that dark, vicious world of the CIA -- the use of U.S.<br />labor organizations, the overthrow of legitimate governments, providing arms<br />to favored groups, covert use of the American mass media, U.S. torture<br />schools and CIA torture supervisors abroad -- all resulting in great human<br />suffering and the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people and in the<br />maintenance of repressive regimes. Sections of the meticulously documented,<br />award-winning film On Company Business are interspersed with the comments<br />of ex-CIA officer John Stockwell, and Molly Dougherty who worked on the<br />film. John also comments about the pending legal action against him by the<br />CIA, and a fundraiser for his legal defense fund, to be held at the University of Texas.
