The US government? Propaganda? Compliant media? Nah, that's unpossible.

Though I think the story is at least a year old; I remember reading about it a while ago.

I know, I couldn't believe it either.  Who'd have thunk it?  Probably even that nice, charitable man Rupert Murdoch was involved, too.  Shocking!

Doesn't the US also criticize countries that have no "free" media?
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Of course it does. It also doesn't like countries to torure people or develope nunclear weapons. Just name a few. Seriously, this as surprising as an orgasm after a wanking session. And is the best kept secret after the discovery of fire that burns.

I prefered it the old way, when government mouthpieces were clearly identifiable as such. I mean, at least with Pravda you knew it was bull****. This...this is a far more subtle and devious strategy.
