"Al-Qaeda's North African branch has claimed responsibility for the killing of an American aid worker"
Brilliant, that's gonna get everyone on side.
"Look, look, we've killed another innocent trying to help our children! Aren't we just marvelous!"
Haven't they learnt the PR lesson yet? Surely they are aware that news has been knocked of its attempted truth throne by the easy route PR movement?
Surely they witnessed the skillful PR war during Russia's little adventure into Georgia?
No matter.
It's all being blown wide open by the Internet. No longer can you shut the doors to a country. No longer can you quietly tidy up the population every time it makes a fuss about freedom, choice, torture or any other such tiresome issue.
Now you're on the spot
Now people can film the police shooting, beating and breaking the rules before it's sent across the world to the everyday. Revolution can happen. Propaganda can only go so far...
That is until someone works out how to manage the whole thing effectively, block out the undesirables, stop some sort of truth getting through...
Transmission Ends...
