Speaking of video games, Paul Klein's buddy Richard Lindheim went on to become an innovator in the domain of developing video game and film applications for the training of US shock troops in advance of invasions across the world. ImageImageImage
This project is a collaboration of the film and video game industries, headed by Hollywood and TV people, who consciously combine elements from both mediums in order to help US soldiers become even more effective killers

Star Trek also looms large over CIA/army war sims contractor, Institute for Creative Technologies. Its founder, Lindheim (a Paramount exec) recruited some of his Star Trek team, including director Alexander Singer & production designer, Herman Zimmerman

I'm gonna do a longish thread on Chappelle's mother, Yvonne Seon (formerly Yvonne Reed/Yvonne Reed Chappelle), laying out some interesting things I found while trying to clear up my own confusion about her connection to Lumumba. 1/x
You'll see repeated across various articles and blurbs about Seon that she worked for the Lumumba government, but this isn't true. Her work in the Congo began *after* Lumumba's assassination. 2/
By her own admission, she arrived in the Congo in March of 1961. Lumumba was assassinated in January.

*The History Makers link is gated but see her interview here, which I'll also be transcribing from: imixwhatilike.org/2015/03/13/yvo… 3/

In 1961 as part of the "White Paper" documentary series, NBC aired "Angola: Journey to a War." Its crew were heralded for their bravery, trekking 300 miles through war-torn Angola after illicitly slipping in from the Congo. It was also almost certainly cover for CIA operations. Image
The film featured the head of UPA, Holden Roberto, by then already a prized CIA asset, who arranged the crew's infiltration into Angola. The director, Robert Young, says they crossed the border with "7 Angolan rebels" and were embedded in UPA units for the entire journey. ImageImageImage
An annual report from the American Committee on Africa (ACOA) indicates that ACOA made the "initial arrangements" for the NBC crew to enter Angola. George Houser, ACOA's director, was a major Roberto benefactor and later also toured Angola with Roberto and CIA agent John Marcum ImageImage

Spook glorifying TV first started to become ubiquitous in the 60s, and it shouldn't be too difficult to understand why

archive.org/details/televi… Image
"In the years 1964-5 telefilms turned more specifically to international struggles, with emphasis on clandestine warfare. The timing was not an accident."

Should also add that the inclusion criteria for the above list, "spy series on television in the 1960s" seem to be arbitrarily narrow. e.g. I'm guessing Mod Squad wasn't included bc it's technically about police spies, but it was obviously a part of the same trend ImageImageImageImage

What the hell were they doing in Antarctica? ImageImageImageImage
Not the only person of note here, but highlighting Stewart Wolf bc easy to overlook (I recognized the name but couldnt place until doing a search). Close partner of Harold Wolff, Dulles's hand-picked founder/director of the mk-ultra front Human Ecology

nap.edu/catalog/20374/… ImageImageImageImage
The continuity between Wolff's mk-ultra sub-project 61 and some of the research agendas in Antarctica including Wolf's is pretty clear. The environmental and social conditions in Antarctica make for a promising human ecology laboratory ImageImageImage

Paul Klein aired an NBC miniseries ('78) adapted from Robert Daley's novel "To Kill a Cop." Daley was NYPD Deputy Commissioner from '71-'72 during the NYPD's brutal war on the Black Liberation Army, which served as his inspiration for this rabidly anti-black fascist copaganda ImageImageImageImage
The contemporaneous reviews say it all: "angry violent blacks", "young blacks looking for any kind of excitement", "psychotic killer out of Attica", "street crazies", "underbelly of black society", "wild undisciplined gang", "gang of terrorists", etc
ImageImageImageImage
As the reviews delightedly point out, "Everett Walker" was clearly intended to stand in for Eldridge Cleaver ImageImage

Patrick Frawley created Sunn Classic Pictures not too long after financing and publishing Ed Butler's notorious cover-ups and disinfo pieces on the assassinations of JFK, RFK, MLK and the Tate-LaBianca murders (blaming communists and Black Panthers) ImageImageImageImage
It's possible Klein (then a VP in audience measurement at NBC) crossed paths with Frawley's circle in 1966, but if not then, then definitely by 1976 when he returned for his second stint, this time as Executive VP, head of programming

ImageImageImage
That must've gone well, because by the early 90s, Klein's own production company (PKO) had teamed up with the far-right zealots at Sunn (then Sun International Pictures) to produce a number of films, even forming a new company for distribution, Sun-PKO Productions
