20 years too late.

(Link to NYT article on another site to avoid paywall).

This is decent although mostly covering one case. It does briefly mention some of the stuff Aronson covered in “The Terror Factory” (the Newburg case for one)…just 20 years afterwards. Still a good article and very rare as far as msm media goes. Even the alternative media have not really taken the FBI agent provocateur story up with any depth or regularity.

The Propublica article seems more to be helping to attack Bloomberg than the deep state.

It is a grey area for sure. A lot of people seem to have trouble pinpointing where entrapment begins and ends, including the FBI. The law does prosecute for “possibly attempting” statutory rape and “possibly attempting” to buy drugs, so it’s not like it has never happened before.
