The documents reveal that the agency is tracking media stories that "reflect adversely" on DHS or the U.S. government. One tracking report -- "Residents Voice Opposition Over Possible Plan to Bring Guantanamo Detainees to Local Prison-Standish MI" -- summarizes dissent on blogs and social networking cites, quoting commenters.

From the first paragraph: "The program would be executed, in part, by individuals who established fictitious usernames and passwords to create covert social media profiles to spy on other users."
