Didn’t the US government pass a bill that allows them to spin conspiracy theories to the American public?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76789548


Smith Mundt Act if not mistaken
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77713326


The Smith-Mundt Act of 1948, which constrained the US gov from targeting the American public with the weaponized propaganda it uses on foreign populations, was repealed in the 2013 NDAA.
 Quoting: Scorpionica


The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012, which was contained within the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (section 1078 (a)) amended the United States Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948 and the Foreign Relations Authorization Act of 1987, allowing for materials produced by the State Department and the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) to be available within the United States.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69237040


Ah. Yes. The Broadcasting Board of Governors, aka the U.S. Agency for Global Media
