SERVICES NOT INCLUDED:

1. Unattributed Prepackaged News Stories: The Government Accountability Office (GAO) wants agencies to know that unattributed prepackaged news stories violate the publicity and propaganda prohibition, which states, "No part of any appropriation contained in this or any other Act shall be used for publicity or propaganda purposes within the United States not heretofore authorized by Congress." In a previously released study, GAO explains that prepackaged news stories are complete, audio-video presentations that are intended to be indistinguishable from news segments broadcast to the public by independent television news organizations. While agencies generally have the right to disseminate information about their policies and activities, GAO says, agencies cannot use appropriated funds to produce or distribute prepackaged news stories intended to be viewed by TV audiences that conceal or do not clearly identify for the audience that the agency was the source of the materials. "It is not enough that the contents of an agency's communication may be unobjectionable," the study states. "Neither is it enough for an agency to identify itself to the broadcasting organization as the source of the prepackaged news story." The study is called, "Unattributed Prepackaged News Stories Violate Publicity and Propaganda Prohibition," GAO-05-643T, May 2005.
