Lmao, I didn't notice that at first. After looking them up, their description is even funnier.

The paper claims to be a:

U.S. military news organization providing independent news and information to the military community across the globe

While being run by the Pentagon. They try to make up some bullshit about having both civilian and military editors, but they're literally funded by the defense department.

I know George Orwell is a hack but there's nothing that exemplifies "double speak" more than capitlist press.
