What I'm thinking of is a bigger engineered story. What's grabbing me right now is hidden intent. Even though Ben still seemed convinced the ODST was legitimate, he said flat-out he was a plant. If he was a plant that implies Mshak, who brought him to Ben, is also not on the up-and-up. That makes his hack easier to swallow because it wasn't really a hack. If the hack was fake it backs up the whole series of verbal exchanges-- before and after Ben was unconscious-- being intentional.
The question is, why would they let out so many genuine details that would give people reason to doubt through Ben's ongoing audio diary? I have three theories.
For one, they could have a longer plan for all or most of the pieces of the truth to come to light, and this is step one-- getting them out there and getting people talking-- and next they'll respond accordingly and let one or two things be confirmed, or maybe decide not to let anything be confirmed. Another theory is that they could be fighting things they knew were leaking anyway or going to leak, and setting up some pins so they could publicly knock them down and discredit the stories. The last theory is this is all to sort of paper over what happened on Biko (whatever their real intentions were) and reinforce the Master Chief as a hero, and by extension make the Spartan-IIs and the whole Spartan program continue to look good.
What do you guys think?
