    So, funny story about that funny story...

    The CIA covertly funded and helped produce the 1954 animated film adaptation of George Orwell’s Animal Farm. As a Cold War propaganda tool, the agency bought the rights from Orwell's widow, hired a British studio to hide U.S. involvement, and changed the story's ending to promote an anti-communist message.
