On the morning of April 27, the Department of Homeland Security announced the creation of the first Disinformation Governance Board with the stated goal to "coordinate countering misinformation related to homeland security." The Biden administration tapped Nina Jankowicz, a well-known figure in the field of fighting disinformation and extremism, as the board's executive director.
In naming the 33-year-old Jankowicz to run the newly created board, the administration chose someone with extensive experience in field of disinformation, which has emerged as an urgent and important issue. The author of the books "How to Be a Woman Online" and "How to Lose the Information War," her career also featured stints at multiple nonpartisan think tanks and nonprofits and included work that focused on strengthening democratic institutions. Within the small community of disinformation researchers, her work was well-regarded.
But within hours of news of her appointment, Jankowicz was thrust into the spotlight by the very forces she dedicated her career to combating. The board itself and DHS received criticism for both its somewhat ominous name and scant details of specific mission (Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said it "could have done a better job of communicating what it is and what it isn't"), but Jankowicz was on the receiving end of the harshest attacks, with her role mischaracterized as she became a primary target on the right-wing Internet. She has been subject to an unrelenting barrage of harassment and abuse while unchecked misrepresentations of her work continue to go viral.

Like most neocons, she's far too close to Nazis to not get the stench on her.
"Nina Jankowicz (born 1988/1989) is an American researcher, writer, and government official. She is the author of How to Lose the Information War (2020), on Russian use of disinformation as geopolitical strategy, and How to Be a Woman Online (2022), a handbook for fighting against online harassment of women. In April 2022, she was appointed executive director of the United States Department of Homeland Security's Disinformation Governance Board, but resigned in May after questions started to emerge about her work with Ukrainian Organization “StopFake” whose been criticized after a Ukrainian journalist, published an article on Zaborona detailing links between leaders of far-right and neo-Nazi groups and the directors of StopFake.org. Following this, the journalist was targeted for harassment and threats, and personal information of her and her son were posted online by the Zelensky Administration and Zelensky Governments Intelligence Agencies. The journalist was later forced to flee for her and her sons life according to the Guardian and many other Western Media Outlets and Human Rights Groups.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
Career
A double-major in Russian and political science, Jankowicz graduated from Bryn Mawr College in 2011 and spent a semester at Herzen State Pedagogical University in Russia in 2010.[7][8] In 2017, she was a Fulbright fellow in Kyiv, working with the foreign ministry of Ukraine.[9] She has also served as a disinformation fellow at the Woodrow Wilson Center and as supervisor of the Russia and Belarus programs at the National Democratic Institute.[10]

by Taylor Lorenz
A marxist POS of the highest order.
Nice lisp. He’s sthpecial (Musk).
Well then Taylor, now that you’ve finished this project you can finally complete your magnus opus, outing and destroying the family of a 10-year old for calling someone a poopyhead.
>>She has been subject to an unrelenting barrage of harassment and abuse while unchecked misrepresentations of her work continue to go viral.
So, basically, she was treated like a Republican.
I’m going to miss her singing...
Couldn't the Disinformation Governance Board handle the "misrepresentations" of the pronouncements of its own "Executive Director" ?
archetypal millennial snowflake.
Oddly enough, didn't we overthrow the duly-elected government of Ukraine in 2014 and install our own globohomo-friendly regime in its place?
Taylor Lorenz is more of a simpering futz.
“....unchecked misrepresentations of her work continue to go viral.”
So simple, see the Yahoo
Pretty sure everyone trashed this one, including. Bill Maher.
Zero for two is not a great record unless you are looking for someone to fight for the deep state against truth and the American people.
Government has NO business, at all, being in or determining with information is misinformation or disinformation, period. The government is to be an neutral arbiter allowing ‘we the people’ to decide what to believe or not.
Frakin Left is a bunch of Fascist mofos and if they claim otherwise, they some lying SOBs. FACT.
