Rose L. Thayer at Stars and Stripes:
The Pentagon has released a modernization plan for Stars and Stripes that affirms the publication’s independence while expanding Defense Department oversight, introducing new restrictions on content…
This sentence is inherently hypocritical. The gist of the article is that DOD is trying to turn Stars and Stripes into a propaganda outlet while preventing it from broadly informing service members, even about sports and world news.
I’m amused at the author’s rebellion: she calls the department “Defense” and not “War” throughout.
Well done, Ms. Thayer.
