Title: Report of the Defense Science Board Task Force on managed information dissemination
Description: The Task Force on Managed Information Dissemination was charged with determining the need for and feasibility of a coordinated U.S. Information dissemination capability. The Task Force determined that U.S. civilian and military information dissemination capabilities are powerful assets vital to national security. They can create diplomatic opportunities, lessen tensions that might lead to war, help contain conflicts, and address nontraditional threats to America's interests. In the information age, no diplomatic or military strategy can succeed without them. Yet America's political and military leaders too often appreciate their value only during a crisis or in retrospect when hostilities are concluded.
