Is Lockheed Martin Dictating Politico’s War Propaganda Articles in Secret? Hell No–They’re Doing it Right Out in the Open

Jan 27, 2022

Check out Politico’s latest “independent” news story designed to scare the bejeezus out of its readers and justify the cry for more and bigger military hardware contracts to fatten the coffers of our leading weapons makers.

Notice anything new? This pro-war propaganda piece is different because it honestly reveals who bought and paid for it, and who really calls the shots in Politico’s newsroom.

Right on top of this scare piece about Ukraine are the words, “Presented by Lockheed Martin.”

It couldn’t be clearer. Don’t you wish for the same refreshing honesty from all the other media that suckle at the military industrial teat and regurgitate their corporate press releases as if they were genuine independent news reporting?

Since late March, Lockheed had been listed as a sponsor of Politico’s daily national security newsletter—a popular read among Washington’s foreign policy elite.
