A wrap up smear, also known as a circular echo chamber occurs when law enforcement manufactures evidence by leaks of investigatory information, than uses the published leaks as supposed "independent" corroboration to justify their actions, such as obtaining a warrant.

CNN, the ''Washington Post'', the ''New York Times'' and numerous other mainstream media reported illegal, fabricated [[leak]]s by [[Obama administration]] and [[intelligence community]] anonymous sources throughout 2016, 2017, and 2018. The fabricated information became the basis of the [[Trump-Russia conspiracy hoax]] and [[FISA abuse]] scandal. When the false information was published, the Obama FBI, Justice Department, and CIA director used the fake news (originating with themselves) as corroborating evidence to begin investigations, interview people, set perjury traps, seek FISA warrants, perform [[Gang of Eight]] briefings, and appoint a [[Mueller office|Special Prosecutor]] to pursue political objectives.

The wrap up smear was again used in the [[Kavanaugh smear]] campaign. Sen. [[Dianne Feinstein]] or a staffer leaked a letter from [[Christine Blasey Ford]] to the ''Washington Post'' alleging notes from a therapist and a polygraph exam were material evidence of a sexual assault, sparking a hue and cry on the [[Left]] for extended nomination hearings and FBI investigation of [[Judge Kavanaugh]]. The alleged "material evidence" was never provided to the FBI or Senate Judiciary Committee for examination and consideration.
