No More Covert Propaganda - Kerry/Lautenberg Truth in Broadcasting Act
No More Covert Propaganda
October 20th, 2005

At 2 p.m. today the Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee Business meeting is expected to adopt legislation sponsored by United States Senators John F. Kerry and Frank R. Lautenberg that will require that “prepackaged news stories” produced by the Administration disclose the government’s role.

S.967, The Truth in Broadcasting Act of 2005, to amend the Communications Act of 1934 to ensure that prepackaged news stories contain announcements that inform viewers that the information within was provided by the United States Government.

A live webcast of the hearing will be available at 2:00 p.m., est here. - http://commerce.senate.gov/live.ram

I’ll have more on this soon…
