I find it interesting that 2013, the year the CIA was allowed to secretly start spreading propaganda again, was about the same time the current state of vitriolic news media coverage (clearly meant to divide and turn people against each other) began at CNN. Also, CNN just so happens to have "ex" CIA agents like Anderson Cooper front and center at their news team (quotes around "ex" because he still works for the CIA obviously).

EDIT: Also worth noting this comment below https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29498797 which also happened in 2013

If CNN's content was vitriolic and divisive, how would you characterize right-leaning media during the same time?

Also, what are your thought on the fact that Republicans held full control of Congress when the repeal was enacted?

If you know of any well known CIA agents working in right-leaning media at that time, and you noticed that their show changed course at that time, it would be a pretty clear indication of what their agenda was don't you think? Anyway, name the show and the person and I'll definitely take a note of what message they are pushing.

>Also, what are your thought on the fact that Republicans held full control of Congress when the repeal was enacted?

My thoughts are exactly the same as when McCain's vote stopped the repeal of the affordable care act and all the main leaders of the Republican party on the floor cheered loudly before Mitch McConnell quickly hushed them up. The people in power see eye to eye on everything, especially the issue of control.
