    These are very good questions. What is the Council on Foreign Relations and what are its goals & motivations?

    These are questions on the path toward developing real media literacy.

      Maybe I should say I’m not in the US. Media literacy isn’t brand new to me. But the CFR was completely foreign (pun intended), there isn’t quite anything like it where I live.

      Although the propaganda model of Herman and Chromsky quoted in your link is very much a mirror of our media too. (Most notably in our television network, own by a single group)

      If I understood properly that was the point of your sarcastic comment on the CFR right?

        Yes, the CFR is a major coordination org between the Atlanticist corporations, governments, and NGOs, with the US leading, as it does.
