Emmy-award winning investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson is reporting that the Obama Administration is using tax dollars to create self-serving propaganda while ignoring questions from traditional media outlets. 
“White House officials have exploited non-news media to spoon-feed unfiltered messaging, at times pure propaganda, into the public’s mouth. The Google-sponsored chat I mentioned – that came with a pre-selected audience and questions submitted in advance by the White House’s own YouTube channel – that’s the way they like it,” Attkisson, the author of Stonewalled, said during a speech at Hillsdale College. “They generate their own content, rely on surrogates to help spread partisan blogs, Twitter and Facebook, give lots of interviews to entertainment programs, digital media and feature press.”
She noted that the Department of Agriculture has more than 1,200 media relations employees nationwide and that the Deparment of Health and Human Services, the National Institutes of Health, the Food and Drug Administration and the Transportation Security Administration all have television studios.
She pointed out that the Department of Defense which cried poor over the sequester runs its own 24-hour channel which features military news, interviews with top defense officials and programs like The Grill Sergeants.
