Reporter shocked that platform designed specifically for #propaganda was used for propaganda

Reporter appears surprised and dismayed that social media platforms designed specifically for the purpose of propaganda messaging, whose business model is dependent on their use for propaganda, are, in fact, used for propaganda.

Social media is used for propaganda messaging by everyone including U.S. based organizations and individuals.
