‘Creating their own Pravda’: GOP group busted running ‘propaganda’ site – and even fellow Republicans are worried
Keep this in mind anytime one of the resident muppets posts an article from the pravda-esque site, Free Telegraph.
The Republican Governors Association this week was caught creating its own news website that critics are comparing to Pravda, the infamous Soviet propaganda newspaper.
The Associated Press reports that the RGA’s new Free Telegraph website consists of stories that paint Republican governors in a positive light, while simultaneously slamming Democrats. What makes the website particularly shady, notes the AP, is that it initially contained “no acknowledgement that it was a product of an official party committee whose sole purpose is to get more Republicans elected.”
The website has drawn criticism even from some fellow Republicans, who worry about blurring the lines between actual news sources and purely partisan operations dedicated to keeping a select group of politicians in office.
