The Anatomy of Propaganda: Ukraine, CIA, WWIII, and the Power of Social Media

by | Aug 6, 2014

How does the Obama administration frame the issue on the shootdown of the Malaysian Airliner to pin the blame on Putin? Get out early, go hard, go heavy, get your mainstream ducks in a row and dominate, dominate, dominate!

But what about the narrative falling apart? Will anyone hear the lone tree falling in the forest? If the US provided some evidence we would certainly consider it.

The CIA has plenty of decent and excellent analysts who refuse to sign off on the administration’s attempt to politicize intelligence to fit the White House’s regime change agenda. Will any of them risk their career and speak out?

RPI Director Daniel McAdams and Jay Taylor discuss the big stories of the week here:
