Catapulting the propaganda
As part of an information offensive in Iraq, the US military is secretly paying Iraqi newspapers to publish stories written by American troops in an effort to burnish the image of the US mission in Iraq. The articles, written by US military "information operations" troops, are translated into Arabic and placed in Baghdad newspapers with the help of a defense contractor.
"The propagandists shoving their lies down the public's throat!"
Damn Bush and Cheney and the rest of the neocons! Oh, wait - it's just Bill O'Reilly, busy putting together his enemies list.
Didn't he say he'd stop supporting the Bush misadministration if no WMDs were found?
