2 Source Watching in the gang stalking dialectic: Mike McPhate, journalist, bio, contact, New York Times, California Sun

Many years after the New York Times ran a “hit piece” called “United States of Paranoia” and claimed that all targeted individuals are nutters, the following happened:

Mike McPhate, discredited journalist, and propagandist. Image from San Francisco State University Department of Journalism website

SO, we see the Department of Justice taking these cases seriously on every claim–targeted individuals are indeed a real thing, and the lawsuits are just starting.

What can you say about a guy who is on record denying the claims of people whose cases are taken seriously by the Department of Justice and Congress?

In the least, the guy is a hack–an irresponsible journalist, who does poor research, and at worst, Mike McPhate is an outright liar. His journalism cannot be trusted, and he is a liability to anyone who would hire him.

That said, there have been many mass shootings since McPhate wrote his piece, and while these shooters are the extreme outliers, irresponsible journalism like McPhate’s enables those who gang stalk individuals.He has enabled the practice, that other journalists have sought to bring to the public’s attention.

And, he is only one part of the problem, not the entirety of it as we see this other turd in the UK writing similar stuff around the same time. Indeed gang stalking is political.

McPhate acted on behalf of powerful interests, and he is certainly an arm of those who wage disinformation, and the NYT itself. While targeting retribution at these people like McPhate might seem like justice, the solution to these types is is to simply source them, and name them, and debunk them.

Mike McPhate, and others have directly contributed to the targeting of individuals long before the Tampa Bay Times won the Pulitzer for reporting on targeted individual programs. By writing poorly sourced, irresponsible smears about targeted individuals, and their brash disrespect of actual targeted individuals is noteworthy and cavalier–they are targeting the claims of homeless people who are being displaced by property developers; they target anti-apartheid activists and other dissidents who are under government surveillance; they target the working class poor, the black, and the “othered,” because the vast majority of targeted individuals fall into these categories. Those who target such people are beneath respect in any and every way.

And McPhate and his enablers conduct is noted.

Read More: Journalists must carefully vet their sources , and in gang stalking journalism, there is a tone deafness due to political pressure. Source watching is entirely critical in these cases. Here are a few more names to avoid, ranging from Dr’s Lorraine Sheridan, to David V. James, Christine Sarteschi, Mike Wood, Richard Lighthouse, Targeted Justice, Joe Pierre, M.D., and many others who were able to slip false narratives into MSM outlets, or otherwise masquerade as experts on this topic..

1 Source Watching 1 in the gang stalking dialectic Dr.s Lorraine Sheridan, David V. James, Christine Sarteschi and a few others–these psychologists are pro-surveillance state, and anti-democracy

The most commonly cited sketchy psychologists who have gone on record claiming that gang stalking complainants are “delusional” are nearly all pro-police, pro-prosecution, and anti-democratic These range from forensic psychologists to cold case investigators, and others employed in the Prison Industrial Complex (PIC) and other for-profit carceral systems of various nations.

Here below is a short list of those who are “gang stalking denialists” that claim victims of gang stalking are likely “delusional.” By no means is this an exhaustive list, and many psychologists who seek to sell books and get press quotes can be found on this topic.

But first, the names of a few actual victims of “gangs of police stalkers” from the main stream media–decide for yourself!

Rick and Cindy Krlich bought a house next to the fire chief, in a little town in Ohio. Shortly thereafter, police, fire fighters, and their relatives and associates began to wage a ten year long “horn honking” campaign against the Krlich’s. They eventually obtained restraining orders against many of their stalkers, who were in fact, a “gang of police and their associates.” Read “Small Town Terrorism,” and meet an actual gang of gang stalkers.

The Feds are throwing the book at eBay executives for gang stalking. Inside eBay’s cockroach Cult is a story of malicious harassment of a couple writers by an actual gang of people from the corporate offices of eBay. Bizarre complaints. Ironically, the same New York Times (second linked article) is on record denying that gang stalking happens. That gang consisted of about 60% women, and included many retired cops, and “people with power,”, as predicted by ROGS Analysis.

Also, reported around the world is the notorious stalking and cold blooded murder of Ahmaud Arbery by a gang of police, retired police, investigators, and their associate. The NYT is also on record covering that case, while denying that these “gangs” of “police” are who “gang stalkers” are. That case even saw Arbery stalked for many years in a policing scheme similar to the Pasco County Florida case of “intelligence led policing,” a gang stalking lawsuit which is now working its way through the courts. Arbery’s case also saw the unwarranted use of an “electronic weapon” aimed at him in the form of a Taser, and the state of Georgia overhauled its “citizens arrest” statutes because of that case.

And, his mother, Wanda Cooper-Jones used simple SOCMINT to tie that gang of stalkers together, using the ROGS method. ROGS Analysis states that “nearly 100% of ALL gang stalking involves current and retired police, military, military intelligence agents, and their associates in state systems, and the community.”

And, that’s EXACTLY who Ms. Cooper-Jones found, and connected together so that the case could be prosecuted. Arbery’s stalkers were a disgraced former police investigator, his son, a neighbor, and a few prosecutors who recused themselves from the case because they had stalked Arbery for many years.

Then, there is the recent gang stalking lawsuit filed against Pasco County FL Sheriff for “targeting children.” The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) writes about that in that exact language, saying “Pasco County’s Sheriff Must End Its Targeted Child Harassment Program.”

Source Watch The Following Psychologists, false narratives, and bad sources who claim that complaints of gang stalking are “delusional.”

There are indeed many more of these cases coming to light as the practice of “police gang stalking” aka “threat assessment informed, intelligence led, predictive policing,” slowly is revealed in the press. In the meantime, here below are a few of those who are quoted in media as “experts” about gang stalking, and all of them claim it is a ‘delusion.”

Here is the general smear that repeats itself in the press:

Mental health experts are troubled that a “delusional” belief system — which leads believers to fear they are constantly being watched or harassed and has even been linked to mass shootings — is now advertised on Vancouver’s public transit system.

The ads are about beliefs called “organized stalking” or “gang stalking”. It holds that conspirators, perhaps dozens of them, are stalking and harassing “targeted individuals” by damaging their personal property in subtle ways or spreading rumours about them.

Some targeted individuals also believe they are victims of “electronic assaults”: torture via weapons from sci-fi movies like microwave rays and body-implanted microchips often with mind-control powers.

However, researchers agree these beliefs are usually caused by some sort of mental disorder.

And here below are a few of the most prominent disinformation agents who are quoted as “experts” based on one single study where Dr. Lorraine Sheridan literally interviewed “the internet,” and used that commentary as her source. Laughably bad, junk science.

  • Dr. Lorraine Sheridan notoriously went on record in the New York Times touting her internet famous online poll where she interviewed “the anonymous internet” for data about organized gang stalking, and denying that gang stalking is a social phenomenon, She attempted to discredit those who complain of OGS by stating that “they are likely delusional.” Quite ironically, the same NYT is on record documenting actual complaints of “microwave/noise/health attacks” on US diplomats who most experts agree were targeted with some type of electronic weapon. Sheridan’s work is not to be taken seriously by any researcher, nor is the NYT a source to cite on this issue.
  • Dr. David V. James of the North London Forensic Service is co-author to the Sheridan internet poll, and one of a long line of political psychologists whose work is used to prop up the police and surveillance state, notoriously a DVIC darling, authoring study after study about stalking. Here he is propping up the complaints of politicians. It seems that just about every six seconds, the highly published Dr. James can crank out a new paper about how politicians, cops and state-friendly psychologists are all “victims of potential stalkers,” as justification for increasing spending on even MORE police. Go figure.
  • Christine Sarteschi is an associate professor of social work and criminology who has a book to sell, she’s a pro-police voice, and gang stalking denialist. She leans right, and is in every way affiliated with actual “gang stalkers” of the type discussed in the Fort Worth Weekly piece called “Gangstalkers.” She is also affiliated with the women’s networks of “domestic violence and family court related gang stalkers,” and is on record with the Canadian Broadcast System(CBC) in a series of disinformation pieces about gang stalking.

Most despicably, she calls gang stalking a “belief system,” as if its some form of religion. Then, note her language here “Their perpetrators are typically perceived to be powerful government or law enforcement officials, who are seeking to destroy the life of the TI , ” and compare that to this recent gang stalking lawsuit filed by the Institute for Justice against the Pasco County Sheriffs office where ACTUAL police and government officials were indeed seeking to destroy the lives of many people, using the bullshit junk science of invasive, and harassing “predictive policing” and whose victims are indeed discussed as “targeted persons” exactly as we see in the lawsuits against the Pasco County FL sheriff in the courts today. The Tampa Bay Times won a Pulitzer Prize for their series about those cases–and none of the reporters used the people in this list as sources.

Nice how these social workers provide cover for dirty, unconstitutional policing, huh?

Here below is the piece that appeared in the CBC hit piece, which acted as cover for Canada’s “predictive policing” and targeting program, whose main propaganda persons are religious right wing “save the women” anti-porn, anti-prostitution types who are the same groups that stalk abortion clinics, and have co-opted feminism in every way.

“I have not seen any evidence, good, hard evidence, to suggest that this is an actual thing that happens to people,” said Christine Sarteschi”

  • Dr. Mike Wood is part of the trend in psychologists taking government funding to “combat conspiracy theories,” a vast majority of which have turned out to be true. And note that his Twitter handle is @disinfoagent–at least he is honest about that. Remember the good old days when they told us that people who believed the government was tracking us, and compiling vast databases of our lives? Yeah–conspiracy indeed: welcome to the FVEYs alliance, and the warehousing of our entire online, electronic lives at the Utah Data Center
  • Ella Free is a “woman of mystery” and there is no actual bio or photo of her anywhere online, though there are several named Ella Free in religiously conservative regions of the Deep South. Strange, considering that her website and online presence claims tentacles all over the world.There are also connections to “womens empowerment” pseudo-feminists from Texas See for yourself.

I reserve my opinion about Ms. Free until further research, but I do find her commentary and interviews with victims of Big Data, and security industries targeting and harassing homeless people, and collecting databases of their DNA, etc. Have a look at this podcast with Bryan Kofron where Kofron discusses how Amazon Corporation trains security guards for gang stalking operations, keeping in mind that Jeff Bezos is a descendant of Stalin era experiments.

I find that interesting because I was also once a security guard, aka a “bouncer” in an industry that was targeted by the deep state, and I sued a “police affiliated” security company that targeted me as well. That is documented at www.reseachorganizedgangstalking.org .

See the photo below which I shot from a Canon camera in Hollywood, CA back in 2016-17, for further information, as I was personally documenting how security companies are assisting large property developers targeting homeless people on Venice Beach, CA. so that real estate values rise.

Is gang stalking a delusion? Do gang stalkers follow people around, and snap photos of them? Indeed, they do.

Main Stream Journalists and gang stalking denialism: separating good journalism about gang stalking from disinformation: Ned Beauman, UK New Statesman

Throughout this blog, you will note that I, the author, am affiliated with, or frequently reference journalists who have won the coveted Pulitzer Prize. To whit, Carl Bernstein, the journalist who exposed President Nixon’s “black operations” has said that historically, the CIA has been quite active at every level of major media, gatekeeping and steering our perceptions. And certainly, by inference, we can extrapolate that many other spooks and agencies are active in this regard too.

But intelligence agencies are not the only major players infiltrating and manipulating willing puppets: let’s meet the psychiatric meta-narrative in gang stalking discourse, by contrasting one reputable journalist with several frauds and liars who work in main stream establishment journalism.

I like to call bullshit when I read it, and have followed this topic for over two decades. SO when the UK’s New Statesman went on record denying gang stalking in 2013, and mocking the claim that gang stalkers will “ruin peoples lives,”I was personally being stalked by named security contractors and others. So, as an early journalism casualty of the post-9/11 surveillance abuses, and as the western Five Eyes partners were being revealed in the press due to efforts of people like me; and just before whistle blower Edward Snowden exposed the deep state and fled to Russia, a “narrative” was being crafted in the press about gang stalking.

Related reading: The Coalition for Ethical Psychology(CEP) response to the American Psychological Association (APA) after that organization was complicit in mind control and torture during the Iraq war and at Guantanamo Bay Cuba, , ongoing. Aso see Dr. Seth Farber, Ph.D’s essay “The Psychiatric Metanarrative, Targeted Individuals and the Deep State” on the discrediting of TIs using a pseudo scientific psychiatric narrative which dismisses all of them as non-compliant “psychotics, and egregiously asserts the innocence of the deep state..”

No one has ever come forward as a perpetrator. But large numbers of people have come forward as victims

Ned Beauman, The New Statesman, 23 May 2013

That criminals seldom come forward and admit to crimes like stalking and worse should come as a surprise to absolutely no one, except enablers like Beauman, and the criminals themselves. Admitting to being a gang stalker would open up new avenues of investigation and prosecution. We see this in the recent cases of gang stalking that have been revealed in the press–like the eBay gang of stalkers where eBay executives, former police, and their associates were indicted for gang stalking; or the case of Rose McGowan, who was gang stalked across continents by the Israeli spy firm Black Cube-we see why these people do not come forward and admit to what they do.

Related Story: Actress Rose McGowan is suing Black Cube and Harvey Weinstein for gang stalking her

One of the main tenets of the psychological meta-narrative that is on full display in the state sponsored “official source” narrated media around this topic, is that people who claim they are gang stalked are “delusional” and might feel that people are mocking them. So I want to be on record, mocking those who mock others in this way. To whit, Ned Beauman has written about gang stalking in exactly that mocking tone (and note Mr. Beauman’s own syntax and spelling errors in his piece), :

these bloggers are part of an online community centred on a phenomenon called gang stalking. Gang stalking, according to one website:

.” . is a covert investigation that is opened on an individual. The individual is then placed under overt and covert forms of surveillance. The person is followed around 24/7. Foot patrols and vehicle patrols are used to follow the individual around, as part of the monitoring process . . . The secondary goals seem to be to make the target homeless, jobless, give them a breakdown, and the primary goal seems to be to drive the target to forced suicide.

Gang stalking has been linked with, but doesn’t necessarily involve, remote mind control. No one has ever come forward as a perpetrator. But large numbers of people have come forward as victims.”

Beauman then goes on to repeat all of the bizarre, psychobabbling, unsubstantiated claims that most state-source bloggers and pundits frequently fill the internet with, and claims which few actual targeted individuals ever make themselves. These bizarre narratives act as cover for the actual surveillance state that has been built up around every citizen by Big Tech, working with governments around the world to actually target every individual who uses a communications device or computer online “24-7.”

Like most of the crackpots gang stalking denialists online, Beauman goes on to quote some poorly sourced gibberish as he spins his narrative, but also admits to having an “addiction” to reading gang stalking stories onlie, as if it is fan fiction. Such is the mindset of gang stalking denialists:

Reading about gang stalking online can be dispiriting, because one has the sense that someone such as Tausk really ought to be intervening. But I confess I also find it addictive. For instance, consider one blogger who believes even birds and animals are his enemies:

Birds, pigeons and crows, that can be controlled to fly (screaming) over me, to land in my garden when I walk into my kitchen and look outside, to crash into my kitchen window and car front window while driving. Birds, pigeons, that come sit, walk, on the roof of my house when I am upstairs having sex. Cats walking by like being programmed. Barking of dogs, flying away ducks etc, not by mind control but by beaming these animals with laser beams (directed energy weapons).

To working journalists and especially investigative journalists who cover any stories of merit, its no secret that the CIA/FBI/DHS et alphabet agencies control–or attempts to control–major narratives in nation wide and international media. Carl Bernstein wrote that “The CIA’s use of the American news media has been much more extensive than Agency officials have acknowledged publicly or in closed sessions with members of Congress

This claim, made in the 1970’s is as true today as it was then, but with even more media outlets to infiltrate and exploit. I myself was “handled” to a former CIA agent many years ago, as I studied the craft of writing for the theater. But I realized then what a farce journalism is if in fact, we all must become de facto agency rats, deceiving the public, rather than maintaining a balance between the public’s interest, and democratic processes.So lets take a look at how Bernstein grappled with the problem stated by Beauman above–that problem of “no gang stalkers have come forwards as a perpetrator.”

Bernstein said “The CIA’s use of the American news media has been much more extensive than Agency officials have acknowledged publicly or in closed sessions with members of Congress. The general outlines of what happened are indisputable; the specifics are harder to come by. CIA sources hint that a particular journalist was trafficking all over Eastern Europe for the Agency; the journalist says no, he just had lunch with the station chief. CIA sources say flatly that a well‑known ABC correspondent worked for the Agency through 1973; they refuse to identify him. A high‑level CIA official with a prodigious memory says that the New York Times provided cover for about ten CIA operatives between 1950 and 1966; he does not know who they were, or who in the newspaper’s management made the arrangements.”

So, Bernstein encountered exactly what any journo will encounter with these cases, that certain lack of credible sources, because in gang stalking, in contrast to international spying, these gangs of stalkers are indeed committing criminal acts, and unlike the CIA, they do not always have plausible deniability. And that is their weakness. Start there, and use these free investigative tools to trace the webs of gang stalkers in your own life, or in a story you are writing.

But do not accept as “credible” articles and the writers who write them, because, sometimes, police who stalk others as if they are “gang members” do in fact come forwards, as we see here below, and the indict the exact same agencies and actual conspiracies that every actual targeted individual indicts too:

Malcolm X’s family releases letter alleging FBI, police role in his death

The letter, written by a deceased police officer, stated that the New York Police Department and FBI were behind the 1965 killing of the famed Black activist.

The letter released at a news conference on Saturday was attributed to a former undercover NYPD officer named Raymond Wood. His cousin Reggie Wood joined some of Malcolm X’s daughters at the news conference at the site where the Audubon Ballroom once stood to make the letter public.

Raymond Wood’s letter stated that he had been pressured by his NYPD supervisors to lure two members of Malcolm X’s security detail into committing crimes that resulted in their arrest just days before the fatal shooting. Those arrests kept the two men from managing door security at the ballroom and was part of conspiracy between the NYPD and FBI to have Malcolm X killed

Journalists are changing the narrative: Targeting Targeted Individuals, by Teri Webster

Journalist Teri Webster, a freelancer who writes extensively in Texas news publications, is changing the narrative of organized gang stalking.

You can read her analysis Targeting Targeted Individuals, where we see good coverage of several of the crackpots and the villains in the dialectic specifically Targeted Justice, a christian intelligence cult that routinely shoots itself in the foot (specifically, here is their response to her article, where they further shoot off their toes on this topic), and many of the tropes of organized gangs of stalkers like “sex offender!” as well as her well sourced account of psychologist Michael Nuccitelli, who was targeted by a group of online harassers who tried to destroy his reputation online(they failed).

Here is my letter to Ms. Webster:

Dear Ms. Webster:


I was once an aspiring journalist, and I published what was likely the nations first article on “manufactured terrorism,” long before noted and award winning journalists like Matt Agorist, or Trevor Aaronson, or others picked that beat.


That article was published in the City College News in 2003, just after the alleged terrorist was arrested after offering himself to the FBI as an informant. My article was not flattering to that agency, its known COINTELPRO, or the emerging evidence that their “terrorist” was “manufactured; or friendly to the full blown and literal police state that was being birthed upon us just afterwards.


Shortly thereafter, I was gang stalked in force, and it did not let up until I left America, and allied myself with foreign persons who could help me “watch the watchers,” whereupon the gang stalking stopped, just like turning off a water faucet.
The only “electronic weapons” that I observed, and documented with evidence during that entire time were wiretaps of various kinds (verified with excellent freeware programs like Wireshark, and other tools that “read” our computers “minds”), obvious surveillance which I sometimes photographed, computer implants–yes, computer code embedded in the Intel and other processor chips of our computers.


I photographed some of the people who followed me around, those people who were photographing me. And, I kept still photos from my security cameras as “mystery people” destroyed them outside my residence, on many occasions. I photgraphed them with hidden cameras as they entered my house during a “black bag job.”


And, I sued a specific security company that had harassed me, and put them out of business too, which enabled several other lawsuits against that company, many of which were covered in the news.


When I read your article on gang stalking, I noted that you said “To borrow a line from The X-Files, let’s just say, “I want to believe,”. My goal is not to convince you, but rather, to “believe” that you actually want to believe. I sensed that in your writing.


SO, Ms. Webster if in fact you want to believe, I suggest that you avoid all of the NSA/CIA/etAlphabet agents, retired spooks, and current and former cops who proliferate in the online dialogues and pollute the internet with their crackpot claims, and ask actual targets of the modern and quite bizarre surveillance about their experiences. You will find those targets everywhere in the activist/dissident/Muslim/LGBT/right-left extremist/and whistle blower communities.


You will find that very few if any of us report bizarre experiences, mystery voices, or lizard people, while ALL of us report surveillance abuse, and bizarre harassment of varying degrees by nameable, traceable agents and agencies. In my own case, every person that I traced using simple SOCMINT and other investigative tools-the same tools that any journalist uses every day.


I have read through your various bio’s before I wrote to you, and also note that your journalism falls into the easy-peezy sort of “public interest” categories which are generally quite flattering to civic arena, and I wish that you take note that your reportage on this topic has performed a sort of disservice to real victims, while upholding a partisan narrative that masks bad behavior by these exact civic structural powers.


If you are interested in separating the wheat from the chaff, I suggest you start at “the strange and hard to grasp truth really is in front of your face, not in some distant galaxy far far away, with aliens, brain zappers, and lots of chat endlessly daring you to prove the negative.”


Best Regards-ROGS
