Twenty-eighteen was the 40th anniversary of the founding of Covert Action Publications, Inc. and the publication CovertAction Information Bulletin (CAIB), later to be named CovertAction Quarterly (CAQ). Former writers and publishers of CAIB and CAQ have relaunched as CovertAction Magazine (CAM).
The relaunch team is headed up by the co-founder, publisher and writer, Louis Wolf, as well as our tried and true investigative journalists, professors, organizers, funders, proofreaders and legal representation. The expanded team includes Chris Agee, William Blum, Jack Colhoun, Michel Chossudovsky, Mark Cook, Jennifer Harbury, Bill Montross, Immanuel Ness, James Petras, Karen Ranucci, Stephanie Reich, Hobart Spalding, Victor Wallis and Melvin L. Wulf, all of whom worked with, and/or wrote for, the magazine in the past.
New talent that has come on board for the relaunch include Sam Alcoff, Steve Brown, Tom Burgess, Hester Eisenstein, Victoria Gamez, David Giglio, Josh Klein, Maureen LaMar, Michael Locker, and Chuck Mohan, to name a few. All together, the expanded team specializes in a variety of social justice issues including intervention, war, covert action, intelligence, political economy, imperialism, labor, repression, surveillance, media, racial justice, sexism, environmentalism, and immigration.
The relaunch team also intends to, among other things, publish several books including an annual compilation of the best of CAM, an encyclopedia of espionage and a republication of CIA Diary: Inside the Company and On The Run by Philip Agee, volumes which will include Philip Agee’s iconic articles and papers.
To support this effort, you can subscribe, donate and/or purchase a full back-issue set of all 78 issuesthat ran from 1978 to 2005. The set is undoubtedly an unparalleled resource of U.S. domestic and foreign policy history found nowhere else!
We welcome more talent, political savvy and diversity! Please send cover letter and C.V. to the Editors. We are particularly interested in writers, editors, web developers, fundraising and development associates, managers and Advisory Board members.

We sincerely thank you for your support.
Thank you for returning!
Somewhere along the breach a great magazine appeared for a short while called PREVAILING WINDS out of Santa Barbara, CA. It would be fantastic if you could access these issues and comb them into your archives as a complementary publication.
Been wondering where the left has been… typically could count on them to offer what little resistance we had to the anti-war movement but cultural marxism has crept in and I suppose they’ve found domestic foes.
Why am I just now finding out about the relaunch of CAQ?! When did this happen?
I would like to congratulate you on re-launching the magazine under the Covert Action Magazine moniker, particularly since its absence in the post-911 years was most unfortunate. While it appears to be more left-leaning and progressive politically than politically neutral, I was curious as whether Covert Action Magazine plans on covering aspects of 9/11 Truth as discussed by such notable researchers as David Ray Griffin that even Project Censored picked up on. The reason why I ask is because covert action inevitably requires a conspiracy to occur, but the word has become heresy among many on the Left that I see as gatekeepers to getting at the truth when it comes to things like “False Flag” operations. So, I hope you aren’t afraid to cover these kinds of things, which do in fact occur. And finally, I’m curious to know if you’re planning on getting the magazine onto shelves in cities like Austin, TX where I’m from? Needless to say, I love buying hardback copies of magazines when I can, and there’s nothing quite like what you guys put out on the newsstands these days. Thanks and all the best for a great year.
Great Q’s Shane. With Noam Chomsky on their board it’s unlikely they will touch the 9/11 Zionist Terrorist Charade or BLAME = Bin Laden Alleged Muslim Enemy
