以下引自張競教授的臉書，他談到所謂美國軍機飛越臺灣上空的假新聞。
外傳美機飛越臺灣上空，搞到許多呆瓜蠢蛋情緒被挑動，結果又是被美國與日本媒體唬弄，但就是沒人看出來這是美軍資訊戰在練兵與測試情蒐。
讓我們看看這個資訊戰操作手法⋯⋯
原先放話操作資訊誤導時，必然沒名沒姓
"I can confirm that a RC 135W [sic] Rivet Joint aircraft did fly over the northern portion of Taiwan yesterday as part of a routine mission," a public officer for Pacific Air Forces (PACAF), the top Air Force command for operations in the Pacific region, told The War Zone in a statement late on Oct. 21, 2020. "Due to operational security we are not able to discuss the specifics of the mission."
等到資訊誤導成功，各方媒體都報導到預期效應程度後，出來闢謠時，就會出現有名有姓官員出來澄清
Update: On Oct. 23, 2020, Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Tony Wickman, the Director of Public Affairs for Pacific Air Forces, reached out to The War Zone to say that the original confirmation of the RC-135W flying over Northern Taiwan had been in error.
"On Wednesday, my staff responded to your query regarding an RC-135 flight (link to story below) and I must inform you that what we gave you was incorrect," he said. "I would like to correct the record by stating we did not have any U.S. aircraft in that area on the date and time in question. I apologize for passing bad information to you as you attempted to provide accurate information to your readers."
其實不要說是美機飛越領土上空，臺灣北部海域領海基線內部，亦就是基隆外海內水上空空域，美國軍機都未曾飛越過，還記得“Make no mistake, the United States will fly, sail and operate wherever international law allows ⋯⋯”這句話嗎？美軍不會搬石頭砸自己腳。
為何會產生這種說嘴自打嘴的事？
第一、美國空軍公共事務新聞官水準太差，搞不清楚就照章回答，卻不知道如此粗糙應對，惹出後患無窮。您相信真是如此嗎？
第二、根本就是資訊戰手法，日本航空迷社交媒體先送假航跡，網路媒體配合操作，傳送匿名配合證實假資訊進行誤導，記錄各個媒體報導狀況是全盤皆收毫不置疑、有所懷疑進行查證、擴大渲染加碼跟進、先行擱置等候確認或是能夠自主判斷駁斥澄清，就可以用來掌握各國不同大眾媒體，或是專業網站素質與記者智商高低，甚至是新聞查證專業道德水準。
這兩天兩岸很多媒體找我採訪此事，希望能夠對此評論，我又好氣又好笑地大罵，美國與日本兩方就是看準兩岸媒體智商低，以種族歧視角度看扁您們蠢，會蠢到被人可以耍弄，又毛躁到跟猴子一樣，才會放假消息來耍您們。當時幾個獨派與對岸媒記者氣不過跟我惡言惡語相向，當時我就斷言，美軍必然會出面擦屁股，承認這是個烏龍事，結果張老師鐵口直斷真準，恐怕到達張天師水準囉！
兩岸關係不睦是真的，但是拜託大家思維正常一些，兩岸網路軍迷假若去相信這種亂七八糟訊息，基本上就是坐實美日兩國經常嘲弄炎黃子孫弱智可欺之訕笑與輕視，大家到底想通了沒有？
