Bush43 did something similar. They would pay journalists to promote policies.

Many former CNN journalists have said this in the past.

The comments are more interesting in that they think Trump will fix things. Trump can't fix people's laziness. You have to fact check yourself. Relying on others to think for you is exactly how we got here!

When Obama legalized propaganda, it didn't mean that the the media wouldn't demand money to publish it.

How did Obama legalize propaganda?

At the end of 2012 he signed HR4310 which nullified the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948 which explicitly forbade the government from running information and psychological operations aimed at influencing U.S. public opinion. Now the government can go beyond manipulating news to directly dissimulate misinformation campaigns. Sorry I didn't get back to you earlier. I didn't notice the mail icon. :/

He repealed a ban on using propaganda within the USA.

there is a thing called Voice of America (VOA) broadcast in hostile countries and all over the world in 61 languages.

This lets sandniggers listen to VOA and al-shebab instead of just al-shebab.

The thinking behind legalizing the broadcast of VOA within the USA was that the diaspora groups can listen to stations like al-shebab and RT, but can't listen to VOA.

However that also opened the door for the USG to lie to americans constantly, and if you think they aren't... then you are stupider than the excuse they used to repeal the ban on propaganda.

pretty sure it was in 2012(I looked it up, it looks like july 2013 --- checked again in more depth it looks like 2012. I was right the first time). back then, the USG could only make and show propaganda in countries outside the USA.

After that rule change, the USG was able to produce propaganda in the USA.

I consider the rule change the start of allowing massive false flags to become a much more common occurrence.

I'm not usually a huge fan of massive conspiracies, but there are some big problems with the sandy hook footage and the boston bombing both have big problems and some of the people look like actors.

I'm not saying they didn't happen, but it sure does look like some of the people involved are actors, and those actors then got used on national television to push narratives.

sandy hook: gun control NOW!

boston: islam is bad, and the new normal will be cops going through peoples houses when they feel like it.

I'm not saying no one died at either incident, but that they seem likely to have had government influence to create media responses that exaggerated events to push talking points on TV.

I think that kind of thing is despicable.

In the world where sandy hook and the boston bombing actually happened it's despicable because they are riding on others misfortune to push policy.

In the world where neither event actually occurred, then it's straight up mind control of the population.

I also find it suspicious that there is literally zero footage of the pulse shooting, or the more recent airport shooting in florida...

both of these locations should have hours upon hours of footage available. both perps are neutralized, so why can't we see the footage now???

Somethings does not add up.

I then get a little bit annoyed when we now just talk about these questionable events like they are facts, when they actually appear to be highly manufactured.

It's on CNN so it can't be true.
