Popularity Jen Psaki

Strange but true: Jen Psak, the speaker of the State Department suddenly become a favorite meme Kremlin, writes Buzzfeed. The publication has decided to find out how far the most influential figure of the American political horizon gained popularity among Russian internet users. It turned out that the domestic media rather freely interpret facts and are mounting, exposing Psak in a bad light. Thus, the publication commented on the publication of "Rossiyskaya Gazeta", which states that "after the start of the escalation of conflict in the south-east of Ukraine wits invented the Internet, the term -" 1 Psak "offering so called scale" rating stupidity and incompetence. " The samples "nonsense" Psak is called, in particular, her statement at a press briefing on May 12 about illegal referendums in the Donbass. Listing the violations were noticed during the voting, the Speaker of the State Department called the use of so-called carousels. However, she was unable to answer a reporter's question, what the term means, and admitted that she is reading the paper. In the West, this incident went unnoticed, but in Russia, where, as stressed by Global Voices, a phenomenon familiar to many after the controversial election campaign in 2011, it ballooned to unbelievable proportions. April 10 Psak admitted the obvious clause stating that "natural gas from Western Europe through Ukraine to Russia." Speaker immediately corrected the error, but in the reports of Russian TV channels, this episode was shown in abbreviated form, giving the impression that Psak has no idea about the direction of gas exports and geography of the European continent. Shortly after the World Hockey Championship, held in Minsk, the text appeared on the Internet by an unknown author, who parodied possible comment State Department in connection with the U.S. team losing to Russians. Clearly jocular text could mislead some respectable publications that reprinted by accepting at face value. After that to convince anyone that Psak never said anything like that, it was useless. The same applies to "the State Department statement" about the possible dispatch of the 6th U.S. fleet to the shores of Belarus if the latter intervene in military operations in Ukraine. Buzzfeed notes that all these stories are actually created and disseminated by the state media, including the TV channel Russia Today and in the transfer of "News of the Week" Russian propaganda chief Dmitry Kiselev, who spent part of the issue "psakingu" - a new concept which, according to lead, "appeared in the vast global internet." "Psaking - so say, when people not understanding, making categorical statements, thus confusing the facts and without further apology", - says Dmitry Kiselev. According to him, "psaking - a reflection of the entire American diplomacy" and U.S. foreign policy. Meanwhile, the "vastness of the global Internet" outside its Russian segment of such a "term" do not know, contrary to Kiselyov. Moreover, the word did not stick even in runet that can be seen on the search results showing mostly links to Russian media. There is a natural suspicion that "psaking" - both in the sense that this word puts Kiselev, and in a broader interpretation, which includes the entire campaign engineered by the vampires around the Speaker of the State Department - the Kremlin forced meme. (Forced meme - from the English. Forced meme - meme emerged thanks to a dedicated PR campaign using technical means and often proplachennyh references on the Internet. - Comm. NEWSru.com.) This is also evidenced by the almost empty thematic groups "VKontakte". Moreover, rhetoric and stylistics commentators too reminiscent of "kremlebotov" hunt which recently opened American media. Apotheosis "psaking" in runet was the message of resignation with Jen Psak position of Speaker of the State Department, which was reprinted in some Russian media on Thursday, June 5. Comment on this news and answer the question, where are gone Jen even offered Russia's permanent representative to the UN, Vitaly Churkin. "Do not know" - Churkin said the question on the TV channel "Russia 24". "Dismissal" Psak provoked the appearance on the Russian social networking hashtag # SavePsaki ("Save Psak"), which the user places in the ironic messages about how they will miss her. As expected, the dismissal was "duck": it has denied itself Jen, published a scathing message on Twitter: "Despite the fact that the Russian propaganda machine says the opposite, I'm still here, as well as strong, democratic Ukraine." Tweet was stocked with the hashtag # dontbelieveRT ("do not trust Russian television" or "do not believe RussiaToday"). Russia Today TV channel just in case denied that reported the resignation Psak, and lamented the fact that the State Department and formerly called the channel "propaganda mouthpiece". Transmission Orwellian Psaki ("Orwellian Psak"), dedicated to Jen and which appeared on Russia Today in early June, the channel does not relate to the propaganda.

Statement by the spokesperson of U.S. State Department Jen Psaki give rise to jokes and anecdotes

American Beauty - the most cited and discussed on Capitol Hill of the inhabitants managed to become Jennifer Psaki, State Department spokesman. And the reason for that - not often change orders, not hard work. A statement to the press, each of which produces a sensation that the name has become synonymous Psaki. Checking out the post by saying that Assistant Secretary of State, Victoria Nuland, foul language, because it spoiled the Russian sailors in his youth, now press secretary collects halls, briefings dismantle its citations in the style of "I know nothing, I know nothing, but in Russia is to blame. " The Internet is a series of anecdotes "As stated Psaki", such as: if Belarus invade Ukraine, 6th U.S. fleet will be immediately thrown to the shores of Belarus. The fact that Belarus has no shores, the State Department does not confuse, said Psaki. Why now the State Department decided to afford Psak as the official explaining the world what they want in Washington. Two flags, two monitors and the Department on the scene barely noticeable. In a small room, usually not more than a couple dozen people, but for such a hall every artist dreams of conversational genre. Word spoken here, scatters around the world. And this word carries U.S. foreign policy State Department spokesman Jen Psaki. Jennifer Rene Psak was born in Connecticut in 1978 in a family of builders and psychotherapist. She graduated from a private college of William and Mary, the oldest university after Harvard USA. Psaki - Bachelor of Philosophy student and captain of swimming team at the back. In 2001, came to the U.S. Democratic Party. During the presidential campaign of John Kerry coordinated work with the media, but eventually made a career in the press service of Barack Obama. In February the 2013th moved to the U.S. State Department. Married. State Department press conference held daily, affecting even those issues that seem to be the United States and do not touch. Here, for example, the list of topics on which Jen Psaki spoke only on one briefing on Thursday: Russia, Ukraine, China, Thailand, Syria, Sudan, North Korea, Iraq, Turkey, Israel, Palestine, Mali, India, Mexico, Nigeria , Vietnam, India, Egypt. U.S. cares about most. As a result, the number of those, of course, affects the quality of their analysis. It turned out that Jen Psaki, giving prepared text aides often do not understand what he says. Jen Psaki, a spokesman for the U.S. State Department: "We do not recognize the results of the referendum, which was held in Donetsk and Lugansk. Were reports of elective roundabouts, pre-marked ballots, voting and voting for the children of the missing". Matt Lee, Agence Associated Press: "Forgive my ignorance. And what is" elective roundabout? "Never heard of it." Jen Psaki: "I must confess that I just read the text. I do not know what it is. Clarify I asked his colleagues what was going on." Matt Lee: "mention and children who voted. They did not do it, circling on the carousel horses?" Jen Psaki: "I think not, Matt." "I need to clarify" and "let's get back to the topic later" - phrases that journalists heard from a representative of the State Department regularly. Recently, she was unable to name a single significant achievements of U.S. foreign policy when he was Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, although this topic at a briefing Psaki touched herself. About the "inconvenient" questions and say nothing. Gayane Chichakyan journalist Russia Today: "Is it coincidence that both times Ukrainian authorities sent troops in eastern Ukraine immediately after the visit to Kiev top U.S.? First time it was John Brennan, and now is Vice President Joe Biden. Biden advised so act, or is it coincidence? " Jen Psaki: "I think you are simply repeating the words of Foreign Minister Lavrov." Gayane Chichakyan: "Well, your answer is-what?" Jen Psaki: "Next question!" However, not only journalists, but also the State Department often puts its official representative in an awkward position. An example of this - photos of a bearded man in camouflage, which Washington took from the Internet and called proof of the presence in eastern Ukraine, Russian troops. Matt Lee, Agence Associated Press: "And how confident are you that the people in these photos, which are relevant to Russia?" Jen Psaki: "These photos went round all the world's media, they were on Twitter, and they are in the public domain. The pictures we can see that these people, judging by appearances, clearly relevant to Russia." Matt Lee: "And you call that evidence?" Psaki: "Hmm." Said, a journalist: "But you do not want to say that the U.S. government with all his intelligence and so on, now depends on photos that have posted on the Internet!?" Jen Psaki: "These pictures from public sources. Draw your own conclusions." Subject immediately picked up comedy shows. Even the U.S. State Department to Americans raised a laugh. "Seriously? This is your evidence? Fat man with a beard! Yes in Eastern Europe all like that! Yes it looks like almost every guy in the world! Yes, it's two-thirds of the group ZZ Top. Or this guy, who produced their first album Beastie Boys! " - Jokes leading comic show "The daily show with Jon Stewart". Joke, laugh it off rather trying and Psak. It turns awkwardly like in the story of Victoria Nuland, Deputy Secretary of State, which, in a telephone conversation with the ambassador to Ukraine Jeffrey Paet, discussing options for the future configuration of the Ukrainian government (again, it would seem, and here the U.S.?) Spoke obscenely to the European Union. Jen Psaki: "You well know Thorium, and certainly know that when she was 23 years old, she lived 8 months on board Russian ship, and perhaps there is some vocabulary learned." Question: "What have they taught her to swear? You mean that she was prejudiced against Russia?" Jen Psaki: "No, I guess on board a fishing vessel that she could learn Russian profanity." Journalist: "But she swore in English." Jen Psaki

: "She ... Okay, I'm joking." Journalist: "Ah, well understood." State Department personnel shortage clear, analysts said, and noted that Russian specialists particularly lacking. Young professionals prefer the Arabic or Chinese direction, and still think in terms of the old Cold War. The result is obvious. Fragment comic show "The daily show with Jon Stewart": Narrator: "And now the question is what America now do with all this? What is the most stupid option you can think of?" Congresswoman: "We have to take a tactical decision and arm Kiev, give them 100 T-72 tanks of the stocks of NATO." Narrator: "We have already done! A pro men robbed them and now have fun in the parking lot at the store!" Washington has now no deliberate policy in relations with Russia, experts say. Because nobody corny think about the prospects. Decisions are made according to the situation, and it is changing rapidly. In the Obama administration did not have time to calculate the consequences. The budget of the State Department in 1983 were laid preparation costs Soviet advisers. After all, it needed to take into account Moscow's interests around the world. Then the emphasis shifted in global politics, and last year the State Department even completely cut off funding for training programs Russists analysts. It now appears that premature. As the newspapers, programs are going to not only recover, but perhaps even expand. See the original material on http://www.1tv.ru/news/world/259585

Poroshenko - illegitimate informant

According «WikiLeaks», Poroshenko and at the same time acted as the main informant then U.S. Ambassador John Herbst. We are talking about the consultations on the formation of a new cabinet in Ukraine. Herbst and his leadership of the U.S. State Department rechecked the information provided by an informant named as full confidence in Mr. Deputy experienced. Why not? It turns out that Poroshenko suspected of involvement in the preparation of a policy to eliminate Alexander Turchinov with simultaneous weakening of Yulia Tymoshenko. Turchinov at the time, recall, was one of the deputies of the "gas princess". Wikileaks: Poroshenko informant spoke of the American ambassador in Kiev Thus, the history of political career Poroshenko simple: from illegitimate (that is, one that does not trust) informant - a legitimate president. But here's a little caveat: the legitimate president of Ukraine Poroshenko believes himself. And another thing: even if a great BH Obama declares someone a legitimate president, declared it as such does not. For legitimate by definition can only be in the event that if you trust people.
