And of course... “Follow on X”.

This is government advertising for a private company.


If X is hosting the content, a simple "Follow on X" is no more an advertisement than an 800 number is for the phone company, or a link to download a PDF reader from Adobe.

The mini-mercials on NPR are much closer to real advertising, and DOGE and the FCC will get to the bottom of that.

See... First you have to know the facts like I do. It is not hosted by X. and it is not NPR private status.

An official government website is not NPR is it? Advertising a “certain” private company on an official government website controlled by CISA is unprecedented and completely out of bounds.
