...all I can think of is Guatemala.
1954.
The CIA engineers the overthrow of Jacobo Arbenz.

They took control of the airwaves and sent false messages that the Nicaraguans were going to attack Guatemala City.
Meanwhile, the CIA and Co. bomb the presidential palace. (But it wasn't them, of course. After all, what did the news say?)
Hmmmm...anyone see any parallels? Of *course* not........
