I had not read that Graham post before. Interesting ..

Keep in mind the term Public Relations was though to have been coined by Edward Berneys. He's said on camera that the US Government realized propaganda worked well during WW2, but propaganda had become a bad word. So he created the US Department of Public Relations. It's literally a weasel word for propaganda.

Who upvoted this? It has nothing to do with my comment.

I should've been more descriptive. In general, it's hard to know who's "ahead" as neither of them has launched anything. However, Google has spent more capital over a longer time on it. This piece though seems mostly to be PR covered up as journalism (aka the submarine).
