NEWS ALERT
The US Embassy in Canberra has been ordered by Washington to recruit Australian opinion leaders to work for them, alongside the US military’s Psychological Operations unit, to strongly increase US propaganda efforts in Australia.
“The United States has directed every American embassy and consulate across the world to launch coordinated campaigns against foreign propaganda.
“The cable, signed by the secretary of state, Marco Rubio, on Monday, also suggests the embassies and consulates work alongside the US military’s Psychological Operations unit to address the problem of rampant disinformation.
“Embassies are told to recruit local influencers, academics and community leaders abroad to carry counter-propaganda messaging — an approach designed to make American-funded narratives feel locally organic rather than centrally directed.
”The State Department said it…had made countering foreign “anti-American” propaganda “a top priority” — and the department would take “an assertive stance on this pernicious issue” by “fully harnessing every tool in our diplomatic toolkit”.”
