they take money from entities linked to foreign governments that are eager to re-frame or invent news stories to punish their enemies at home and torque American foreign policy by controlling information.


Sounds very much like what Walter Duranty did during the Soviet famine in the Ukraine, with his stories to the New York Times.

Completely made up. No famine here. Everything is wonderful.

I hear he got a Pulitzer.

Roy Gutman has been selling propaganda as news for his entire career. And he won a Pulitzer for it in the beginning days of his career. I think for his reporting in Bosnia.

He still does it. Although his last client was Erdogan’s Turkey and even he found out how journalism is there. hee hee hee
