Wish him the best but I dont think it'll go anywhere. Will be shocked if it does.

Reason: The Smith-Mundt "Modernization" Act of 2013.

If you arent aware, the ORIGINAL Smith-Mundt was put in place back in 1948 to stop communist propaganda being dished by certain agencies at the time; i.e. it was forbidden to spew propaganda thru an Nationally recognized News outlet; e.g. CBS, NBC, ABC, NYT, etc. Obama "modernized it" which removed all the restrictions against using propaganda against the American people thru News outlets. Think back to when "News" really began to get out of hand with all the bullshit: that's right, 2013. NOTE: I am NOT saying it didnt happen before 2013, but I am saying it got bat-shit crazy AFTER 2013.

In short, "News" is ALLOWED to propagandize and talk shit about anyone the state directs them to do since 2013. This was NOT allowed prior.

Caveat: The only exclusion to this was and always has been the DoD.

Disclaimer: This is a "cliff notes" version of the original purpose and how it was changed. I highly encourage everyone reading this to go read BOTH versions and understand the nuances both offer in order to understand where we're at now.

If you read all that, congrats and here's your reward of a more in depth "Cliff Notes" analysis from an actual Law Firm.

Conclusion: [they're] protected, since they were allowed/directed to do it. We'll see what happens.
