Is this a rule you apply equally or is it OK when we do it, like the ex-CIA director says [0]? Should the NED, VoA, Radio Free Asia, etc. all be shut down then?

- aaron-lebo 9y agoI've got a general rule of not supporting propaganda. If I lived somewhere else I wouldn't want propaganda there either, but I don't, so... I'd rather it not be in my own country, especially because we've built the tools that have allowed it and have the power to stop it.
- mark_edward 9y agoFair enough. I see a lot of two-facedness on this.
