Episode 8

The war in Vietnam is no longer happening far away. Images of conflict flood American living rooms and the anti-war movement explodes. LBJ is convinced the protests cannot be truly domestic. Someone must be behind them: Moscow, Havana, perhaps both. He orders Richard Helms and the CIA to find the foreign influence driving unrest at home. But as the Agency moves closer to spying on American citizens, Eloise Page begins to see a different force at work. Not a secret network. Not a Soviet plot. Something much more powerful, sitting in plain sight: television.
