Smear campaign

« Back to Glossary Index

an effort to damage or call into question someone’s reputation, by propounding negative propaganda. It can be applied to individuals or groups. Common targets are public officials, politicians and candidates, activists, real whistleblowers, and journalists who threaten the establishment, are a threat to disclose their crimes, or may challenge one of their desired puppets in a political campaign. Smears often consist of ad hominem attacks in the form of unverifiable rumors and distortions, half-truths, or even outright lies; smear campaigns are often propagated by controlled media such as the NY Times, Washington Post, CNN, NBC, CBS, or ABC, among many others. Even when the facts behind a smear campaign are demonstrated to lack proper foundation, the tactic is often effective because the target’s reputation is tarnished before the truth is known.1
