Summary

In 2016 a website called “PropOrNot” appeared alleging that a number of alternative media outlets that disagreed with the mainstream bipartisan policy of foreign interventionism (including The Corbett Report) are in fact agents of Russian propaganda. In 2018 a startling new expose purports to show the connections between PropOrNot, the Interpreter, the Broadcasting Board of Governors, and the Atlantic Council. James Corbett appears on Radio Fault Lines to discuss this new expose and the broader implications for government-funded propaganda.
