Stove piping refers to the direct feed of information without proper context. This is commonly used to cause misinformation without your own ranks to curry favor in your own direction. For instance, the Office of Special Plans stovepiped information to high ranking officials, who used the information that had no context to make their own decisions.

A stovepipe's function as an isolated vertical conduit is recalled with this metaphorical term. It's been used in the context of intelligence, to describe intelligence information presented without proper context.
