What I’m finding interesting is that from 1940-2010 (roughly) was this brief blip in human culture were communities got their news from a centralized source. Before it was mostly word of mouth, now it is the Internet. This makes many old techniques relevant again.

Yes. I think cable was the start of the fracturing intonsmaller communities. The UK has partisan press, but France (for example) still relies on TV news for info. It is one of their defense mechanisms, but unintentional.

When you said centralized I wondered whether you meant in the metropole, as France is more than other countries. Still, there's space for disinfo in most these models. US 1945-1995 was an outlier for centralization.
