“I do not remember an instance of an honest man atop Novosti (the former USSR’s KGB media). What I do remember is the fact commonly known in Moscow, that Novosti perhaps holds first place in the number of mentally ill, alcoholics, sadists, masochists, schizoids, graphomaniacs, etc., and is something of an asylum for all sorts of mental cases never reported to the Serbski Institute — that is, as long as they continue to pretend to be loyal to the Power. And these are the cadres who ‘decide all’ in the business of ideological warfare against the rest of the world.”

~Yuri Bezmenov, former KGB propagandist, and defector to US
