As a mere attentive reader, I’d say the CIA has been manipulating Wikipedia for even longer (maybe from the start?), since it was some fifteen years ago that I looked up Philip Agee’s entry, and found that it was nothing but a tissue of the propaganda smears that CIA pumped out in 1975 (and ever since), in fierce (covert) response to Agee’s indispensable Behind the Company: CIA Diary. (For those interested in that attack, and Agee’s many other punishments for authoring that book, I’d skip that Wikipedia entry, and, instead, read Agee’s memoir On the Run.)
