I didn't realize this existed. Would be curious to know if they're coordinating with anyone.

Digital Outreach Team Created to Counter Misinformation about the U.S. in the Blogosphere The Bureau of International Information Programs’ Digital Outreach Team, formed last year to engage Arabic language blogs and forums, began in late November to interact with those online forums. The team members clearly identify themselves as employees of the State Department and share information on U.S. policies and address misinformation about the United States. The tenor of views on these blogs and forums is decidedly unfavorable to the United States and often exhibits a virulent strain of elaborate conspiracy theories. Almost all participants on these internet sites have been uniformly receptive to having a conversation with the
Digital Outreach Team. On average, a few hundred to several thousand people see the team’s postings on each site. Through the Digital Outreach Team, the State Department is actively and directly present in cyberspace.
Nothing additional at link...just wanted to provide source.
