A star has been born: THE FBI
During the First World War, they were actively spying on immigrants from enemy countries. The well-known economic failure of 1929, however, led the office agents to look at the increasingly quiet gangsters. During World War II, the group became the target of sabotage, subversion, espionage and desertion.
By then J. Edgar Hoover was the director; he would have been in office for almost 50 years. He gave the group today’s (Federal Bureau of Investigation) name and, to a large extent, it had been. At least he took good care of the institution’s appearance; among other things, he forced the agents to wear the outfit that later became so natural to them: a suit, a tie and a hat, and in winter a trench coat and a long coat.
At the end of the war, the Soviets became the main enemy, and the red threat was seen everywhere by Hoover's men. The anti-communist fever reached its peak with the so-called Witch Hunt. While intellectuals were treated as criminals, J. Edgar Hoover used to dine with real criminals, Mafia bosses, in popular restaurants.
But he was able to dispel the FBI’s suspicions about him – including his homosexuality, despite publicly condemning and pursuing this trend – and attributing it to others. Spanning several narrow Hollywood stars, he turned the FBI itself into a screen star.
In 1959, The Untouchables began airing the series, telling the story of Elliot Ness. While in the 1960s, the heroes with ties and hats proliferated on the screen, the office was unable to solve the most important cases of the decade: The Kennedy and Luther King murders. Hoover died in 1972 and with him ended his meticulous half-century of rule. The FBI would never again have the power it had acquired in those decades.
In 1974, during the Watergate scandal, the CIA was the protagonist. It wasn’t until 2005 that we learned that the cornerstone of this case, known as Deep Throat, was Mark Felt, the second FBI chief at the time.
In a hundred years, the most popular and media agents in the world, like the films and series around them, have multiplied enormously. This office for 34 people currently has more than 30,000 employees.
