Lincoln Group, Propagandist, Keeps On Swinging

In October, according to the Marine Times, the Pentagon started yet another one-year multi-million dollar contract for propaganda ("psychological operations") with the Lincoln Group, the upstart PR firm implicated last year in "pay to print" positive stories about US operations in Iraq.
This new contract is designed "to provide 'strategic communications' services for the top U.S. command in Iraq to help American officials counter poor public perceptions, conduct polling, and perform other communications services."

Last week, the Huffington Post reported that the Lincoln Group was poised "to receive yet another two year $20 million contract from the Pentagon to "put together a unit of 12-18 communicators to support military PR efforts in Iraq and throughout the Middle East, as well as influence 'the morale and support for the war in the United States.'" It's not clear if the articles are referencing the same contract.
