I'd say it is happening again and with nobody questioning it! They must feel Uber important to be helping the Gov spread their propaganda....
I'd say this is how obama got re elected so they can try to change the constitution and take away our rights little by little to the sheeple pull your head out of the sand people our government nor any other countries is for us and they should not be trusted to do what is best for us the people!
Sad sad thing as it is to change this we must educate ourselves apart from the gov talking points and look at all avenues of information and I know that is a new concept for some and even scary but it must be done.

Central Intelligence Agency campaign to influence domestic and foreign media beginning in the 1950s.
According to the Congress report published in 1976:
The CIA currently maintains a network of several hundred foreign individuals around the world who provide intelligence for the CIA and at times attempt to influence opinion through the use of covert propaganda.
IDAHO Senator Frank Church argued that misinforming the world cost American taxpayers an estimated $265 million a year.
The first tier of the nine giant firms that dominate the world are Time Warner/AOL, Disney/ABC, Bertelsmann, Viacom/CBS, Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation/Fox, General Electric/NBC, Sony, Universal/Seagram, Tele-Communications, Inc. or TCI and AT&T. This is just the head of the octopus which has its second and third tier tentacles working together in unison or feigned division.
This would include The Washington Post/Newsweek, The New York Times/Weekly Standard, Tribune Co., US News, Gannett/USA Today, Dow Jones/Wall Street Journal, Washington Times, Knight-Ridder, etcetera.
Media propaganda tactics include blackouts, misdirections, expert opinions to echo the Establishment line, smears, defining popular opinions, mass entertainment distractions, and Hobson's Choice (the media presents the so-called conservative and liberal positions).
The CIA and the Media by Carl Bernstein Rolling Stone, Oct. 20, 1977 In 1953, Joseph Alsop, then one of America's leading syndicated columnists, went to the Philippines to cover an election. He did not go because he was asked to do so by his syndicate. He did not go because he was asked to do so by the newspapers that printed his column. He went at the request of the CIA.
Alsop is one of more than 400 American journalists who in the past twenty-five years have secretly carried out assignments for the Central Intelligence Agency, according to documents on file at CIA headquarters.
