Nina Jankowicz Says Ministry of Truth ‘Was a Victim of Disinformation’: Our National Security Is in Danger Now
EXCERPT:
JANKOWICZ: “I would say that the Disinformation Governance Board was the victim of disinformation. So the difference between dis and misinformation is, disinformation is false information spread with malign intent. And clearly there was a malign intent on some actors in the media, and in politics, who just really stood up to the -- the formation of this board because it would be confronting disinformation. They completely mischaracterized its mission. And frankly, this childish behavior is endangering our national security now. This board was set up to counter real disinformation that makes Americans less safe, things about false information related to disasters, border security, our elections and other critical infrastructure, like pipelines and banks. So those who stand in opposition to the board, which, as the secretary said, was just an internal coordinating mechanism, something to make sure that we were efficient and using best practices, are standing in the way of our national security.”
