Counter Disinformation or Censorship?

from The Active Measures Newsletter Podcast · host The Pell Center at Salve Regina University

This week on the Active Measures Newsletter Podcast, hosts Jim Ludes and Mark Jacobson review the decision by Secretary of State Marco Rubio to shutter the surviving office countering foreign disinformation on the grounds that it was actually censoring American voices.  The conversation then turns to the nominee for the U.S. Attorney in the District of Columbia and his failure to disclose more than 150 appearances on Russian state-run media; the health of the Canadian information ecosystem in the run-up to the country's election; Russia's efforts to capitalize on the end of American support for independent media in Ukraine; and tremendous reporting on Russia's Pravda Network and its global reach.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
