Into the Fray: How NBC's Washington Documentary Unit Reinvented the News By Tom Mascaro

The Science of Spying, marked the arrival of Bob Rogers as a field reporter-producer. The program aired May 4, 1965, and tracked the roots of U.S. covert operations back to the 1950s, providing a stark account of clandestine initiatives in a time before public disclosures, congressional investigations, and Hollywood movies made the 1970s a difficult time to be an American spy. The "Pentagon Papers," the Pike and Church Committees, and thrillers such as Three Days of the Condor eventually revealed the CIA's complicity in assassination plots and interna-tional meddling, which Yates and Rogers had already seen up close. NBC management stood firm when The Science of Spying attracted criti-cism. Ad reps from Batten, Barton, Durstine & Osborn (BBD&O) screened it and advised their client B. F. Goodrich Company to withdraw.31 BBD&O issued a statement saying the program violated the Goodrich advertising policy "in that it treats a controversial public issue in a way which may do harm to the government of the United States?" NBC countered that the documentary "fell within the broad outlines of the program policy origi-nally submitted to and accepted by the B. F. Goodrich agency, BBD&O."33 The CIA watched the program and tracked subsequent reactions in the national press. Viewers wrote to President Johnson complaining NBC News had given America's enemies negative propaganda.34 Yates may have antici-pated some adverse reactions to the program, but he never expected to be frightened by what he discovered.

An African superstate can only affect everyone on the globe. We here present this insight. Drop us your comment and let's keep the conversation going.

Deep rythm and melody, a powerful message to the heads of states of all African countries.

This is not just music.
This is a declaration!

Today, at the heart of a world that is going crazy, where sovereign leaders are being kidnapped right from their sovereign countries and wars being perpetrated through false pretence and condemnations, resulting in innocent human beings loosing their lives, we are taking our responsibility. We are calling for all our African leaders to make The United States of Afrika a reality.

So from today, March 4th (march forth) we are calling on all African consciences, whether at home or abroad to engage and ask our African leaders to STAND UP and DO THE RIGHT THING to save Africa and Africans from the madness and actual real threat to life anywhere on the planet,, let alone Africa.

So we here present an instrumental anthem — a proposed future national anthem for the upcoming United States of Afrika, that is now more than a must. IT IS URGENTLY A MUST!.

We have created an anthem, sound that represents OUR DEMANDS from all our African leaders:

We demand:

• One Nation
• One Economy
• One Passport
• One Army
• One Shared Currency
• One Voice in Global Policy
• One Flag
• One National Anthem
• Free Movement Across All Union States

Africa stands at a historic crossroads. With over 1.4 billion people, the youngest population in the world, and the largest emerging free trade zone under the African Continental Free Trade Area, the structural foundations for continental unity already exist.

The framework is present through the African Union.

What remains is collective will.

This instrumental piece is offered as an example — a sound that could one day represent a united, sovereign, powerful continental federation.

If you believe in:
A borderless Africa.
An economically integrated Africa.
A politically coordinated Africa.
A globally respected Africa.

Comment your country and write: ONE AFRICA.

The future is CONTINENTAL.
The time is NOW!
