Yes, everyone knows about marketing but not this kind. I first ran into this in 2003 but recently it came out that Facebook secretly hired a marketing firm to redirect the negative attention it was getting because of the security problems that came out before Congress concerning the 2016 elections. This marketing company working for Facebook and blamed George Soros for the problems in social media in an attempt to drown out the negative news about Facebook. It turns out there are marketing firms that can be hired to convince Americans of just about anything. Do we need a new Stealth Fighter? Need anti-climate change propaganda? Need to make a technology company executive look bad in the press? These marketing companies are for you. These marketers use some of the same techniques that the Russians are accused of using in the 2016 US elections. These marketing firms are very sophisticated and their activities have been going on for decades long before social media was around.
