According to former [[AFOSI]] Special Agent [[Richard Doty]], a good disinformation program involved the release of truthful information alongside misleading material. He claimed that by releasing "juicier" bits of truth alongside the deceptive material, the odds increase that an individual or group targeted for suppression via disinformation will accept it as true.

~~The general understanding among some researchers is~~ that figures involved in disinformation, such as [[William Moore]], may have acted as [[controlled disclosure|controlled disclosure agents]]. In this role, they reportedly disseminated [[disinformation]] or served as [[provocateurs]] while also gaining access to [[classified government programs|classified information]]. This arrangement is believed to have balanced disclosure with secrecy and maintained control over public narratives about [[UFO phenomena]].

Some people theorize that figures allegedly or self-admittedly involved in disinformation, such as [[William Moore]], may have acted as [[controlled disclosure|controlled disclosure agents]]. In this role, they reportedly disseminated [[disinformation]] or served as [[provocateurs]] while also gaining access to [[classified government programs|classified information]]. This arrangement is believed to have balanced disclosure with secrecy and maintained control over public narratives about [[UFO phenomena]].

Proponents of this theory suggest that such individuals worked alongside or under the direction of [[information controllers]]—often attributed to factions within the [[military-industrial complex]]—to strategically release truthful but limited information while sowing confusion with fabricated or misleading claims. By doing so, they allegedly shielded the [[shadow government]] and its operations from scrutiny.
