The other day I published a piece on the Trans-Regional Web Initiative here, a concerted effort by US IO offices to reach out and establish credible, long-term, sources for information providing fair and objective information. For the most part one can look at each of these websites that I published and properly infer that the areas of focus are all areas with severe problems. Not only are the governments unfair and oppressive, compounded by a highly militant environment, but the press is not free. Because the press is not free, the targeted audiences may or may not be fully informed about current events in their area.
When I published my blog I listed nine websites and implied that the US Northern Command had such a website. We finally found it:
- http://agorarevista.com/ - focused on Mexico (NORTHCOM)
The only difference between this site and the others is the lack of an English translation button, but my browser offered to translate it for me. ..and there, plain as day, on the “About US” page, it says the website is run by the US Northern Command.
The only question I have is “Who is the Agora Magazine staff that provides content on the website?” I found one in Italy and one in Holland…
