Red Lines host Anya Parampil speaks with The Grayzone's Ben Norton about his recent piece "U.S. govt-linked PR firm ran fake news networks for right-wing Latin American regimes." They discuss Facebook's recent announcement that it deleted dozens of accounts run by a Washington D.C. based PR firm called CLS Strategies. The accounts sought to undermine the democratically elected governments of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela and Andrés Manuel López Obrador in Mexico, as well as boost support for the Bolivian coup regime. They also address CLS Strategies' close ties to the Democratic Party and a potential Biden Administration. Read Ben's article here: https://thegrayzone.com/2020/09/06/cl...
Ben Norton joined Red Lines to discuss his recent piece, “U.S. govt-linked PR firm ran fake news networks for right-wing Latin American regimes.” He outlined how a Washington D.C. based PR firm called CLS Strategies sought to undermine the democratically elected governments of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela and Andrés Manuel López Obrador in Mexico, as well as boost support for the Bolivian coup regime. Norton also addressed CLS Strategies’ close ties to the Democratic Party and a potential Biden Administration.
CLS' activities reminds us, again, that public relations, a quintessential offshoot of capitalism, is an activity rooted in professional mendacity and aggressive prostitution. From the birth of this filthy profession, the object has been to whitewash the crimes of the rich and powerful.
