Wikipedia Founder Tells Tucker The CIA Runs Wikipedia!

from The Jimmy Dore Show · host Wase History Club

During an interview with Tucker Carlson, Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger pointed out that intelligence agencies like the CIA manipulate Wikipedia content for propaganda purposes. Jimmy discusses how anti-establishment or anti-war figures are unable to edit their own pages while establishment-friendly outlets such as The New York Times and CNN are approved as reliable sources.  The segment also explores evidence of organized efforts by Israeli groups and Zionist organizations to influence Wikipedia’s coverage of Middle East issues. Jimmy concludes by mocking billionaire Elon Musk’s plan to create “Grokipedia” as a supposed free-speech alternative, expressing skepticism toward both corporate and government control over online information. Plus segments on former Clinton administration official Robert Reich lying about Trump and the government shutdown and the new Zionist censors at TikTok who are already doing their dirty work to shut down criticism of Israel. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano! And a phone call from JD Vance!
