Could this be fake news? But then again...maybe not.

This came in an email, so use your own judgment. :D

While the top tier of the government tries to keep saying that Russia is
responsible for all kinds of our problems (when President Obama laughed
such a notion off when Mitt Romney suggested such when they were
opponents) they are already underway on having ALL media in the U. S.
being "State Run" ONLY (hmmm, what country does that sound like???) . . .

Obama will also sign a bill to make alternative media illegal

A new anti-Russian propaganda bill is now also to be signed into law. This
bill will make it illegal to run an alternative media website in the
United states. The purpose of the bill is to counteract measures by Russia
to exert covert influence. It is also known as the “Intelligence
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017.”

The definition of Russian influence includes references to so-called fake
news websites, or any site deemed to be anti-establishment. If the bill
makes it through the Senate, the internet will never be the same again.

A check shows it has some credibility, but for Obama to sign a bill, means the republican controlled legislature would have to send him a bill..

mostly false

WHAT'S TRUE: On 23 December 2016, President Obama signed a Defense Department appropriations bill with a provision establishing an interagency office to identify and combat foreign propaganda.

After reading SNOPES, it appears it is mostly true.. by giving the "goverment" authority to decide what is propaganda and not limits our free speech and our ability to get out real facts. had this bill applied to TV and print media it would have been fought tooth and nail to it's demise.

Coming soon to an internet near you, state RUN news, best thing since communism for the progressives!
