Interesting

This appears too be conditioning to demonize truthers not a positive piece at all.
People say they all want the truth, but when they are confronted with a truth that disagrees with them, they balk at it as if it were an unwanted zombie apocalypse come to destroy civilization.
^ yeah, why'd they cast the crazy-lookin dude for the role? If they picked someone handsome/well dressed it would have an entirely different effect
I still wonder what the backstory is behind the writing; was it a blatant attempt from the start to squash/ridicule an issue that may have been hot at the time? Or was someone behind the scenes actually trying to do some whistleblowing, only to have it watered down in production?
Weird thing to see in a show like that.

From our man Fugazi @ EY:
May have had something to do with this stunning piece of forgotten history, a 1978 conversation between a US reporter and two members of the Trilateral Commission.
Anyone who was anyone in Washington politics, in media, in think-tanks, had access to it. Understood its meaning.
It’s through-the-looking-glass—a conversation between reporter, Jeremiah Novak, and two Trilateral Commission members, Karl Kaiser and Richard Cooper. The interview took place in 1978. It concerned the issue of who exactly, during President Carter’s administration, was formulating US economic and political policy.
The careless and off-hand attitude of Trilateralists Kaiser and Cooper is astonishing. It’s as if they’re saying, “What we’re revealing is already out in the open, it’s too late to do anything about it, why are you so worked up, we’ve already won…”
NOVAK (the reporter): Is it true that a private [Trilateral committee] led by Henry Owen of the US and made up of [Trilateral] representatives of the US, UK, West Germany, Japan, France and the EEC is coordinating the economic and political policies of the Trilateral countries [which would include the US]?
COOPER: Yes, they have met three times.
NOVAK: Yet, in your recent paper you state that this committee should remain informal because to formalize ‘this function might well prove offensive to some of the Trilateral and other countries which do not take part.’ Who are you afraid of?
KAISER: Many countries in Europe would resent the dominant role that West Germany plays at these [Trilateral] meetings.
COOPER: Many people still live in a world of separate nations, and they would resent such coordination [of policy].
NOVAK: But this [Trilateral] committee is essential to your whole policy. How can you keep it a secret or fail to try to get popular support [for its decisions on how Trilateral member nations will conduct their economic and political policies]?
COOPER: Well, I guess it’s the press’ job to publicize it.
NOVAK: Yes, but why doesn’t President Carter come out with it and tell the American people that [US] economic and political power is being coordinated by a [Trilateral] committee made up of Henry Owen and six others? After all, if [US] policy is being made on a multinational level, the people should know.
COOPER: President Carter and Secretary of State Vance have constantly alluded to this in their speeches.
KAISER: It just hasn’t become an issue.

This interview slipped under the mainstream media radar, which is to say, it was ignored and buried.

I havent watched the Barney Miller clip yet but in the same vein i was watching Dr Strangelove yesterday and theres a scene where the general that is percieved to be crazy and gave the operation r order is talking about flouride in the water and how it is a communist plot or something. It seemed to be like a staining of any flouride talk as kooky paranoid speak. I'll see if theres a youtube vid of it.
That trilatteral interview is very imteresting.

Kubrick is a sneaky fucker
IMO Stanley Kubrick was a legit whistleblower.
I suspect his entire career was about trying to see how far he could push it without being silenced. 2001 was a massive symbological epic, Shining IMO was a commentary on Apollo, ClockWork Orange, etc etc - all conspiracy-minded exposes of realities I think Kubrick was totally aware of/had insider knowledge. Eyes Wide Shut was the candle on the cake
Dr. Strangelove is possibly one of the smartest CT films ever, Kubrick knew what he was talking about till the end

I think youre right. I'd like to do a Kubrick movie marathon and take notes on all the hints and intersting scenes. It seems like in his films it!s the kook who exposes the 'conspiracies' so it makes the info seem crazy but it's still getting out there. Not sure if it's a smear tactic or the only way Stan thought he could get those subjects into the films was to semidiscredit them.

"Field Associate" features TV veteran Ned Glass (second of two) as Stanley Golden, a dying cat burglar who takes a shine to Harris, confessing that he has no friends left behind. Eventually, Harris discovers that the 50-year criminal has a wife he hasn't seen in 32 years (Florence Halop, fourth of six), but the happy reunion doesn't quite turn out like he'd hoped (Dietrich: "ooh, I'm drained!"). Jeffrey Tambor plays William Klein, a conspiracy nut arrested for breaking up an office of the Trilateral Commission, the creation of David Rockefeller in 1973. Dietrich later reveals himself to be a member, taking notes on Klein's complaints for a future board meeting! A memo from Internal Affairs points a suspicious finger at each of the squad room detectives- Wojo's habitual tardiness, Capt. Miller's habitual failures to report same, Harris' business dealings during work hours, and Dietrich's frequency to engage in 'unnecessary conversation,' and general 'lack of enthusiasm.' When an accusatory finger gets pointed at Levitt being the 'field associate,' he fesses up: "if I said no, they would have found somebody else, so it seemed better for it to be someone who liked you guys who would overlook major transgressions and concentrate on the really picayune stuff!" Wojo: "what are we supposed to do, thank you?" Levitt: "you're welcome!"
