The US government has an official propaganda ministry: USAGM.
Large "independent" media like NYT have admitted that they work closely with the DoD and other agencies to screen content before publishing.
Also worth noting that the former propaganda chief at USAGM is the current head of NPR.
And yet none of the above get "USA state media-affiliated" warnings on social media like Twitter, which digs the hole even deeper.
The de facto state media apparatus of the USA is unbelievably huge and underacknowledged. The DoD alone employs over 50,000 people working in "media" roles.
