I sorta believe the same, but then I re-read this part of the article:

"In the very process of preventing misinformation from another side, they are creating misinformation through a process that disguises the source for information that is going out," said John J. Schulz, dean of Boston University's College of Communications and a veteran journalist. "You can't be creating a model for democracy while subverting one of its core principles, a free independent press."

I guess I'm concerned that "do as I say, not as I do" is not the best way to foster a democracy. It is the
deception that bothers me - I'd be happier seeing upfront efforts to get the same positive information out there.
