| Syndicate to spread "free" op-eds subjects in corporate media to influence what people think. But 'he who pays the piper calls the tune' - in this case mostly George Soros and Bill Gates. | |
According to itself, Project Syndicate "produces and delivers original, high-quality commentaries to a global audience. Featuring exclusive contributions by prominent political leaders, policymakers, scholars, business leaders, and civic activists from around the world, we provide news media and their readers cutting-edge analysis and insight, regardless of ability to pay. Our membership includes over 500 media outlets – more than half of which receive our commentaries for free or at subsidized rates – in 156 countries."[1]
This own description sounds very positive and selfless. However, this means nothing else than that the syndicate wants to influence what people discuss and think, influencing global public opinion and sell that as "charitable work." To see "who pays the piper" look at the sponsors listed below.
A large number of its articles and comments make it into the corporate media. The desired narratives are picked up and disseminated, often indirectly, and the reader or viewer does not even find out whose opinion they are being presented with as “news”. All in all, Project Syndicate is a very effective (and at the same time very inexpensive) propaganda tool.

Sponsors
| Event | Description |
|---|---|
| Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation | Very influential and rich foundation established to take leadership of global health. |
| Google News Initiative | Google and the deep state buying domination over corporate media and creating tools to censor independent voices. |
| Open Society Foundations | A NGO operating in more countries than McDonald's. It has the tendency to support politicians (at times through astroturfing) and activists that get branded as "extreme left" as its founder is billionaire and bane of the pound George Soros. This polarizing perspective causes the abnormal influence of the OSF to go somewhat unanswered. |
