Disinformation Rule Number Three

Create a rumor, avoid discussing the issues
Call them accusations, and claim that facts have been misused
Be derogatory, stay far way from the real truth
Cloud up the waters, describe the charges as uncouth

Twenty-four more to go, all you need to know
About disinformation, to recognize fabrication

Straw man, hit and run, play dumb
There really is nothing to it
Old news, new truths, false clues
There isn't a crook who doesn't do it

Silence the critics, create confusing distractions
Goad your opponents, divide them up into factions
So many more to go, all you need to know
About disinformation, to recognize fabrication
