The smith Mundt modernization act of 2012 was signed by President Obama with little notice to the public. It gives the United States government full legal power to propagandize its own citizens. This should not be tolerated.  It calls into question any, and all news reports, news articles, commercials, motion pictures, staged events reported as real news.  With a 4 billion dollar a year budget it gives the government full power to stage incidents to create fake media in order to sway public opinion and push political agendas. We deserve the truth, and Americans should have been warned. We shouldn’t tolerate a government and media that’s actively deceiving us!
