For 20—30 years KGB active measures took time, now they don't — Michael Weiss

The KGB used to plant seeds of disinformation in the West with the hope of weakening, or dividing the Western response to Soviet aggression and then wait for the dissemination of this misinformation. Now, with the Internet and Kremlin-controlled media, the misinformation can be distributed with the click of a few buttons, said Michael Weiss, the Editor-in-Chief of www.interpretermag.com and the co-author of a recent report, ""The Menace of Unreality: How the Kremlin Weaponizes Information, Culture and Money".

Michael Weiss spoke with Sunday Show co-hosts Nataliya Gumenyuk and Ian Bateson on Nov. 16, 2014 via Skype from New York City.
