Nice to see FR get credit where credit is due, to coin a phrase :-)

Important story ping.
We’re still behind the curve in the Information Warfare battlespace.

LOL! And the DOD even knows that FreeRepublic is not a blog!
I have to find that FoxNews credit where credit is due image now.

The MSM always loved “watchdog groups” until they found out that they were the bone the “watchdogs” were eyeballing 24/7. Free Republic does a lot to keep the “media” bozos honest. The “media” can’t get away with their shenanigans like they used to.

I blogged from the war zone, right here on FR. All my posts were vetted.
So there. Come and get me, copper.

Thanks for the Bump.
They don’t need to run influence operations on bloggers - the bloggers have a position, and argue it every day, and this influences public debate. As if Wretchard and Bill Roggio and Michael Yon (1) needed prompting to support the war effort and (2) could be manipulated in any event.

"clandestinely recruiting or hiring prominent bloggers" for information warfare and of the reticence the military has toward using the Internet for disinformation campaigns.
Hey,I'm a prominent blogger;)

Military is being quite wise to explore this. And think about doing exactly this. The expertise, on all sides, is there, has been done in the past (using other methods) and with good success in purpose.
Of course Academic Lefties will howl in outrage.
And they will be inclined to vent their most cherished true beliefs and goals: what they *really* think. Would fit right in with their Dem Candidates in the here and now.
It is currently being proposed by a CA Dem to overturn laws against "being a member of the Communist Party" in CA. Obviously, liberals are taking a step into the "private" propaganda wars.

I think it is VERY cool that we humble posters are viewed as more valuable than the delusional divas of the Drive By Media.

In lots of ways I believe the MSM are a greater threat to our National Security than the known terrorist thugs and communist rats.
