Kelley Defends FBI Assault on New Left
Washington AP reports FBI Director Clarence Kelley defended a three year covert counter intelligence operation aimed at New Left groups. He promised a full report to the attorney general, not immediate release, and offered few specifics about the program. The effort launched May 10 1962 and ended April 28 1971 involved infiltrations and provocations potentially targeting blacks groups white hate groups and the Ku Klux Klan. The two released memos acknowledge a systematic campaign ordered by Hoover and a broader set of activities. The case stems from NBC Stern suit under the Freedom of Information Act.
