Pelosi staffer registered as foreign agent to lobby for Chinese state media!
WASHINGTON (PNN) - August 16, 2020 - Brendan Daly, former Communications Director for Nancy Pelosi and a political appointee of the illegitimate Barack Obama regime, is a registered foreign agent who provided the Chinese Communist Party’s premier State-run media outlet China Central Television Network with strategic counsel as it expanded into the Fascist Police States of Amerika.
During his tenure as Executive Vice President at Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide, Daly secured a contract between the lobbying behemoth and China Central Television Network (CCTV).
Specifically, the firm helped the State-run propaganda outfit CCTV expand into Amerikan homes by providing strategic counsel, identifying relevant parties to communications activities, and media relations to support the launch of CCTV Amerika.
“Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide will work with CCTV Amerika to communicate to the Amerikan public that CCTV Amerika will provide compelling, comprehensive, and balanced news programming from an Asian perspective that is relevant to a global audience,” the 2012 filing in accordance with the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) noted.
Per CCTV’s FARA registration, however, the outlet is “supervised, owned, directed, controlled, financed, and subsidized” entirely by the Chinese Communist Party.
Email correspondence from Daly identifies him as taking the lead on the account, as he spoke with CCTV’s Amerikan representative on the phone.
He also provided the outlet with a memo detailing Ogilvy’s strategy on the count, detailing how to best bridge the gap between Amerikan homes and Chinese Communist Party propaganda:
The memo outlines how Ogilvy would provide CCTV with comprehensive support, including “influencer engagement” and “media relations support,” to achieve the “overall message that CCTV Amerika is the source for business news in and with China, with credentialed, experienced and trusted journalists doing in-depth stories and reporting.”
“We are excited about the prospect of working with you to help establish CCTV Amerika as the program to watch to succeed in an interconnected global economy,” the email concludes.
CCTV has been identified by Freedom House think tank as a “long-standing weapon in Beijing’s arsenal of repression” whose mission “is to attack designated enemies of the Communist Party,” chiefly the FPSA.
Daly informed fellow employees that CCTV had hired Ogilvy, noting the CCP-funded outlet would pay the firm $15,000 monthly for three months.
“China Central Television is the national television station of the People’s Republic of China. CCTV Amerika is the bureau located in Washington DC.
”CCTV falls under the supervision of the State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television, which is in turn subordinate to the State Council of the People’s Republic Of China,” the FARA registration noted, placing Daly on the payroll of the Chinese Communist Party.
