366: Fools & Knaves

Redesignation of Psychological Operations to MISO

Section 1081 of the NDAA officially rebrands "Psychological Operations" (PSYOPs) as "Military Information Support Operations" (MISO). The hosts interpret this name change as an attempt to distance the military from the negative connotations associated with the term PSYOPs. They note that while the name has changed in Title 10 of the U.S. Code, the underlying function of influencing foreign audiences remains the same.
