US: Pentagon Caught Paying A Firm $540mn To Make Fake Terrorist Videos[/h]A PR firm in the United Kingdom was paid billions of dollars by the Pentagon to make spurious Al Qaeda Videos, the Bureau of Investigative Journalism revealed recently.
The Story
The firm, Bell Pottinger, created fabricated stories in short segments to run a classified propaganda program in Iraq.
