Journalist on cspan referring to the fact that America
has always been prohibited from using propaganda within its borders but has always used it on everyone else. She was told "You use propaganda on everyone else and it doesn't work on us, but it does on you."

2. Legally...
The U.S. Government cannot own a broadcast property within the U.S. But they operate the largest radio network in the world...VOA and it's various affiliates that cover everything else. There's also VOA-TV that is beamed everywhere but to the U.S.

But then this doesn't take into account the government "regulates"...or in the case of broadcasters, enters a blood pact.

4. Certainly true that we outside the US often looked at MSM reports

(from American MSM) even 10 years ago and would roll our eyes. You guys are a little gullible to your own myths. You always have been.
