The Integrity Initiative is How Mass Media Works

Yesterday RT featured a round-up on the Integrity Initiative, "Do it CIA style: What you need to know about latest leak on UK-funded psyop":
In a December 16 editorial, the Scotland-based Daily Record, which has been one of the only major outlets reporting on the scandal, suggested that if the II [Integrity Initiative] was "gift-wrapping intelligence for journalists desperate enough to pass it off as their own work without proper attribution” then that is “worthy of further investigation.”
Still not a peep about the Integrity Initiative in Reuters, AP and The New York Times. I searched AFP too. Nothing.

What does that tell you? It tells you that the Integrity Initiative is the skeleton in the closet, the bare bones of how mass media operates in the Western world. Spooks set the agenda, and the taxpayers pay for it.

As if to fill the void in their very own pages The New York Times has countered first with a "Those horrible Russians are dividing us and brain-washing our coloreds" rehash, and now today an exclusive about an alleged Chinese hack of an EU diplomatic network which -- lo and behold! --reveals that Trump agitates people.
