1849: Hose Water

Nonprofit Industrial Complex, Propaganda and Chilean Sea Bass

Mimi Smith-Dvorak uses the marketing rebrand of the Patagonian toothfish to "Chilean sea bass" as a metaphor for the "snow job" of modern nonprofits. She argues that many NGOs are merely conduits for government money to reach lobbyists and political campaigns. She warns that this "nonprofit industrial complex" flavors all public information with propaganda, making impartial news nearly impossible to find.
