How to use "Covert" in context?
"covert" is an understatement when describing the intricate, clandestine operation that was conducted by the United States government for over fifty years. Officially known as Operation Mockingbird, the program utilized American journalists, writers, and broadcasters to influence foreign policy and support American interests. While not a secret by any means, Mockingbird was largely ignored and declassified only in the late 1990s. Its revelations have led to a greater understanding of the way the U.S. government operates and the tactics it uses to influence foreign policy.
Mockingbird began in the early Cold War era as the U.S.
