The Smith-Mundt Act prohibits the media from propagandizing the American public.
Osama changed that to allow them to.

I'm reading about it now. It was sponsored by an apparent rino from Texas Mac Thornberry (no longer in office) and a Democrat rep from Washington (still in office.)

Just like all Democrat efforts, it sounds like it does the opposite of what it was advertised to do, judging by what we've been seeing in the media for the past 9 years.

Of course. That's just par for the course. They put a nice sounding name on things that are good for them, but bad for the Country so that no one actually looks at it too closely.

The Media was always Left-leaning, but once the Act was "modernized" they could finish their transformation into the Propaganda Ministry that the Left wanted.
