COINTELPRO (1956-1971) was the FBI's secret counterintelligence program to 'discredit and neutralize' domestic political organizations. The FBI planted false media stories, published bogus leaflets in targeted groups' names, forged correspondence, and made anonymous calls to journalists. Targets included Martin Luther King Jr., the Black Panthers, anti-war groups, and feminist organizations. The program was exposed in 1971 when activists stole 1,000+ classified documents from an FBI office in Media, Pennsylvania. Congressional investigations confirmed systematic media manipulation and civil rights violations.
