Brian Angliss begins by dissecting DemandDebate, an anti-global warming propaganda machine, and then takes apart, strand by strand, the entire disinformation network surrounding rich arch-conservative noisemonger Steven Milloy. This three-part series sheds tremendous light on the anatomy of a dog and pony show, and the lessons learned are neatly generalizable to many other propaganda machines polluting our public sphere.
