One of my favorite GAW frogs, u/winn, posted an article that has been published on cnbcusa.com

https://archive.md/0ufsD

The headline touts Man of the Moment Pascal Najadi (GAW search https://greatawakening.win/search?params=pascal+najadi&community=GreatAwakening), even though the article only refers to him once or twice and links to the "viral video".

One smart frog pointed out that the website urls is different from CNBC (https://www.cnbc.com/) even though it uses the CNBC logo, and voiced his/her suspicion.

I was prompted to dig a little, and I'm posting the results here because I think this is a good opportunity for applying some of that anon analysis and critical research methods that Q has tried to train us in.


What a curious operation. Take a look at the live website: https://cnbcusa.com/

The stories are old, not very active. There are a few things to note:

1 Not very active, stories posted sporadically and with large time gaps (iow, not daily news or even weekly news, which indicates a VERY small number of 'journalists' active there

2 The "About us" blurb make grandiose claims that do not make sense

CNBC USA is the number one business and financial news network on the planet.

Our mission is to help the influential and aspirational to make astute decisions to get ahead.

CNBC International ensures no matter where you are you can keep up to date with the latest breaking business and financial news.

With international headquarters in London and Singapore, we provide you with the perfect 24-hour global business briefing. From the start of trading in Asia, through the Closing Bell on Wall Street, our fast-paced, hard-hitting business coverage makes CNBC essential viewing for any senior business leader.

But click on the "Business" tab, and this is what you get:

Article: Jan 18, 2024; Article Jan 15, 2024; Article: Apr 27, 2023; Article Dec 5, 2022, etc.

So, not exactly the "number one news network", not exactly a source where "you can keep up to date", unless you are a piece of granite with an existence of a few million years. "24-hour global business briefing"? I don't think so.

3 The "author" - David Stevens, has posted only 5 articles on cnbcusa, and he (?) uses a stock photo as his avatar pick

There DOEs appear to be an active Journalist "David Stevens" who also lists cnbc as one of his conduits, but the face does NOT match the cnbcusa David Stevens (obviously)

4 None of the other stories on CNMCUSA or by the so-called cnbcusa David Stevens match or vibe with the current article on Pascal Najadi. They are all about other things, quite a varied theme base, and nothing that resembles the 'blockbuster' "Trump is Wartime President, WEF, Pandemic murders, etc" article.

Note: I did a deep dive dig on my favorite (well, despised) disinfo operation come clickbait site NewsPunch (aka YourNewsWire, ThePeople'sVoice) and found precursor publications on the url covering random, varied topics, like men's fashion, etc, for a few years, before it transformed and exploded out as "News No One Else is Brave Enough to Publish" in 2016.

#Conclusions:

Add all these up and there are a few possible explanations.

Most likely are two:

One, this is a sleeper disinformation operation, that was established in sleeper mode, publishing reportedly legit articles on random topics, prepared to be activated at the right time to publish disinformation or "dirty news" designed to mislead and to poison the water hole in the awakening / truth sphere.

(By "dirty news", I am using the analogy of a 'dirty bomb', an explosive device that contains radioactive elements intended to poison the location and people where it is exploded, to describe the idea of news information that has some explosive power (i.e. truth) but which also contains misinformation and disinformation, the purpose of which is to disrupt the flow of actual fact-based truth and mislead those who have left the MSM matrix.)

Two, this is a clickbait operation by a scumbag person or group whose method is to present themselves (project the image) of being a big, legitimate operation, associated directly with CNBC.

#Discussion:

I don't see ANY clickbait advertising on the website, which indicate that it is funded. By who? Cannot know without further digging. But simply being funded in itself indicates the motive is not clickbait money making.

Why would this website suddenly post an explosive article about Pascal Najadi, out of synch with all its other stories and activities?

A third possibility might be that the operation is a White Hat sleeper operation, put in place to be activated to promote certain types of narrative deployments, which possibly the Najadi narrative is (although I remain skeptical at this point).

A fourth possibility might be that its just some band of anons-type tiny group who are doing their own operation clandestinely but for good purposes. This is highly unlikely, I think, however, considering that the website looks funded and the size and timeline of the operation seems too large for anyone less than a very wealthy batman-type persona.

Either way, this website is NOT what it portrays itself as. So the key question is: WHY?


Based on the above (even superficial) dig, I would be 100% suspicious of this website and ANYTHING they publish.

If you read the article, read it with a high degree of skepticism, and ask yourself:

are there elements / narratives / data in here that are seeking to manipulate me, in my thinking or emotional response?

Is there disinfo nestled in among the fact-based info?

what biases might the article be seeking to possibly exploit?

I read today on one researcher's post this idea: always ask questions. If you keep asking questions, the truth will eventually emerge.

So, don't just swallowing this article because it seems to say all the right things (plays to one's biases, etc), ask and be skeptical. Because there are ALWAYS forces out there seeking to derail us, and mental and emotional vigilance is the price of freedom of thought.

Disclaimer: I haven't gone through the article itself. The information MAY be legit, but I have serious doubts about the sauce, however. So I'm skeptical off the bat.

Thanks to u/The3rdkey who raised the heads up.

Also, kudos to u/winn (OP) who wrote: "This is some weird shit..."

You're right about that, buddy!


What do pedes think about the article?

What about the Najadi narrative, that has burst on the scenes in recent weeks, apparently with all the kinds of things awakened frogs would like to hear?

Are you skeptical? Are you convinced? What convinces you? What data points is your attention drawn to?
