The BBG isn't a CIA spin-off either, it was created after the broadcasting functions (Voice of America, Radio Free Europe, etc) were split off from the US Information Agency, which was a public and non-secret agency overtly created to advance US interests. At no point were either the BBG or the USIA secret or their intentions unknown. If the author of this piece has to rely on imaginary bogeymen like this, I don't have much faith in the rest of their work.
