The State - News from May 28, 1985

A San Francisco television station has reported that the FBI has been spying on domestic anti-war groups in the 1980s, much as it did in the preceding two decades. KRON-TV reported that documents acquired through the Freedom of Information Act showed that the FBI began spying on such mainstream groups as the Physicians for Social Responsibility and Jobs With Peace in 1982. The heavily censored documents do not give many hints about what the FBI learned, the station reported, although the investigations have resulted in no charges against any of the groups or its members. The FBI had no comment.
