We're all at it

Against a background of 24-hour news, smartphones and social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, the force will attempt to control the narrative.

The 77th will include regulars and reservists and recruitment will begin in the spring. Soldiers with journalism skills and familiarity with social media are among those being sought.

An army spokesman said: “77th Brigade is being created to draw together a host of existing and developing capabilities essential to meet the challenges of modern conflict and warfare. It recognises that the actions of others in a modern battlefield can be affected in ways that are not necessarily violent.”

The 'information war' is in full swing. Unfortunately the likes of Tony Blair, GW Bush and our foreign policy since 9/11 has left a lot of people doubting the official party line and listening more to 'the enemy'.

This tweet is of note:

Here's an interesting observation - David is posting 8 AM - 8 PM every day, Moscow time. Almost like it's his job or something. https://twitter.com/conspirator0/sta...309888/photo/1

Fox news is great as it is a comedy.

Fox News pulled off the air in Britain - Aug. 29, 2017

Rupert Murdoch and his sons are pulling Fox News off the air in Britain.

The network's parent company, 21st Century Fox, has announced that the controversial news channel will no longer be broadcast in the U.K. after failing to attract an audience.

So they were. The plot thickens.

I've had otherwise reasonably smart people tell me in all earnestness that they don't get their news from the British newspapers or the BBC, but from Russia Today, since it publishes the truth.

It's part of my round Robin of news sites. The Daily mail isn't though.
