How the military analyst program controlled news coverage: in the Pentagon's own words

"We develop a core group from within our media analyst list of those that we can count on to carry our water. They become the key go to guys for the networks and it begins to weed out the less reliably friendly analysts by the networks themselves."

Glenn Greenwald

Chomsky is certainly protected, he has been throughout his career

Remember what I said on a previous thread about the basics of psychological warfare? That the art of it is to persuade your opponents that you are a really evil mother, a ruthless geopolitical giant gangster with no scruples? Isn't that what Chomsky has been saying about the USA, in book after book, loudly and publicly, heard all over the world, for four decades? How naive do you have to be to see that as genuine? And why does the evil mother itself protect him? Precisely because his proposed "solution" is no solution at all, but a shapeless, formless mess called "anarchism." I mean, don't get me started. Please.

I will offer you this, though, from the same Jeff Blankfort I mentioned on another thread as having been one of the victims of, and successful complainants against, the ADL's secret police tactics:
