I think Chomsky talked about the post-Hiroshima manipulation of public 
opinion in his recent book, "Understanding Power." I can't find my copy, but 
I was really fascinated to read about how the U.S. deliberately censored 
journalism and scientific reports about the bombing in order to prevent 
Americans from questioning the U.S. actions.

still trying to form committees."
