The most important axiom for understanding how the U.S. corporate media functions is that there is never accountability for those who serve as propagandists for the U.S. security state. The opposite is true: the more aggressively and recklessly you spread CIA narratives or pro-war manipulation, the more rewarded you will be in that world.
What strikes me is not the rather obvious message in the specific text but the ease with which the “given” (i.e. that there are those who serve as propagandists for the U.S. security state) is just plopped on the table. From this point on, it is clear that everything he imparts in the rest of the piece about the identity and mission of these assets is completely known by everyone involved. They all know the game and their part in it. They are all part of it.
