The allowing US citizens to be subjected to propaganda by obama actually did that. For decades previous to that, it was illegal for the government to serve you propaganda through news media. I think it was a section from Smith-Mund... something or other, but I could be confusing one bill for another. It has been more than a decade after all.
It was a small section of the Smith Mundt Modernization Act that allowed the government to inflict propaganda unto us. The original Smith Mundt Act banned it.

Thanks for the clarification. I thought it was the other way around, that a piece was removed.
