H.Clinton: US Losing Info War To Alt. Media. Requests extra funds to spread US propaganda
Submitted by go213mph on Wed, 11/28/2012 - 12:55in
(You Tube) The US is losing the global information war, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton declared while appearing before a congressional committee to ask for extra funds to spread US propaganda through new media.
Clinton said existing private channels are not good enough to handle the job, naming as rivals Al Jazeera, China’s CCTV and RT — which she watches, she added.
Clinton was defending her department’s budget in front of the House’s Committee on Foreign Affairs on Wednesday.
Clinton said the US should step up its propaganda effort and get back “in the game” of doing “what we do best.”

luv abby martin / crosstalk/ max keiser and so on , sure its all slanted a certain way , but i prefer it towards FOX CNN BRAINWASH EFFECT
"He's this eccentric Ghandi-Like figure that you cant touch with the normal bribes that people respond to."
the man Doug Wead on DR. RON PAUL
Hmmm.... let's think about this.
So, she watches Al Jazeera, China’s CCTV and RT. Wanna bet she "watches" Daily Paul, too? What better communications outlet is there for ALL current events having to do with our freedoms and the loss thereof?

Russia Today: "She is practiced in the art of deception."
Don't be silly, Ms H. The, "she" mentioned is, "Russia Today."
"Russia Today" is polished... "She is practiced in the art of deception." Her Provada heritage is well concealed.
Return to your violin lessons. Your song is sad enough. Mind your tuning. Then, and only then, lean to play. Till then, please stay off the stage!
Russian violin makers fight to save 500-year-old tradition She may be 300 years old, but she finally got her voice back. 5 minute promotion for government subsidy staged as newsreel. Propaghanda to get Russia government funding... Allow Russian violins to stop playing second fiddle on the world stage.
Ms H is not even playing second fiddle. Ms H is a but a poor beggar. Begging for the public purse. Ms H confesses to losing all the money we already gave her; yet, still bagging for more.

"Voice of America" $700 M sends out CIA approved messages.
"Voice of America" mentioned after the 2:30 time mark.
"Voice of America" tax funded budget dwarfs all competition... combined.
The irony of Ms H claiming to lose this information war, whilst being broadcast by Russia Today, a Russian Government sponsored media network is stark. Whilst admitted their importance... her watching...
I hope Ms H leans what is helpful to us from her following all this worldly information. This winning information.
Ironic that she is advocating spending (wasting) dramatically more. Her erstwhile companions spend a tiny fraction of what Ms H wastes losing. To lose a war costs dearly for both sides.
Alas, if only Ms H would cap her losses.
Stop blaming others for her troubles on our dime. Stop sending her bills. Stop making enemies.Disclaimer: Mark Twain (1835-1910-To be continued) is unlicensed. His river pilot's license went delinquent in 1862. Caution advised. Daily Paul ☑
She even referred to RT as being "quite instructive"
as if that was a threat or something.
Translation: efforts to kill the internet
must be stepped up.
Crazy stuff.
Same thought
crossed my mind.
Wait, so you believe US
Wait, so you believe US private TV networks are propaganda, but foreign state-run media in totalitarian states is 100% legit?
Could you be more specific?
I understand what you're saying, but could you mention a specific topic that RT has "lied" or "told a half truth" about? I have several examples of lies and half truths from CNN, Fox, MSNBC, and BBC.
That's kind of how I look at it: I've done research on many topics brought up by RT and I still have yet to prove them wrong. Maybe you have an example, though? I'm all ears.

Pravada disappeared into "Russia Today."
Pravada boasted the will of the Co-operative for nearly a Century. Twas at the worker's expense.
Soviet animated propaghanda 1924 (Lenin's Kino Pravda) 5 minute animation extolling the benefits of the collective.
It repetitively boasted it was winning.
"Russia Today" is polished... "She is practiced in the art of deception."

Lies by omission
RT is only a friend of liberty when it suits the agenda of its owners. Putin's Russia is imperialist and repressive and surely looks forward to imposing its will others should waning US power give it the opportunity.
Wait, you believe the US TV
Wait, you believe the US TV networks are not propaganda?

It is biased, but I wouldn't
It is biased, but I wouldn't go so far to say it is propaganda. There is a clear leaning by each network, but most of the networks have various people who hold different views working for them. I generally think any popular, major private news network will always have less propaganda than one owned and controlled by a government.
You will not find 'propaganda free' media anywhere. Even the libertarian news sites on the internet spread libertarian propaganda, they don't talk about what the other viewpoint thinks and give a fair and balanced conclusion, because that's stupid and pointless. Propaganda is a valid tactic in furthering your political goals. I support spreading libertarian propaganda, because I want other people to be libertarians. Other people with other political views think the same way. Governments also think the same way, as they are the government, they push statist views that support the government of their country on their news outlets. As a result, government propaganda is always the worst propaganda.
Daily Paulers are the most skeptical people of any action by anyone in the US. They can find a conspiracy in a glass of water. Yet so many of you refuse to even question what China, Russia, Iran or Qatar's totalitarian governments want you to hear on their official TV stations...
There is no doubt that the Chinese, Russian, Qatari and Iranian state run media is far worse than that of the United States. The governments of these countries are also far more tyrannical than that of the United States. As much as many American libertarians like to play the victim, the fact is that the US is the best country for liberty in the world. There is no nation on the planet that has the level of freedom of speech or the gun rights that Americans do. There is no nation on the planet that has as strong a libertarian movement than what Americans have. People here talk of Switzerland, Panama and Finland, but the truth is they are all far inferior in these aspects.
Despite all it's flaws, there is still really nowhere better than the United States of America.
Is that you, Hillary?

I don't know... but, I'd sure like an answer!
How about it, compromise? Come clean.
