Bush seeks creation of new Federal agency
<snip>
Mr. Bush said the fact that the government provided the first images of him looking grave and engaged in the crisis even before Rita slammed into the Texas and Louisiana coastline showed that it had learned the lessons of Hurricane Katrina.
"After Hurricane Katrina, it was hours before the American people saw the first photos of me furrowing my brow and looking serious," Mr. Bush said. "But with Rita, we had high-quality images of me looking worried right from the get-go."
<snip>
"In times of crisis, the president needs to send the American people the following message," the president concluded. "Message: I look like I care."

1. Why does he need to create an office for propaganda?
Don't we already have the MSM?

3. Not entirely reliable.
You never know when some maverick might get in there and ask a real question. And after the debacle of the Gannon Strategy, they can't just stuff the reporters room.

8. As much as Shrubco F$*ks everything up, can you imagine the actual
propoganda they'd catapault? Maybe we should encourage this, it might be the only way to recover some of those FAUX news viewers
