... The daily newspaper for the U.S. armed forces stationed oversees is launching a product that will be made available as a weekly supplement to U.S. newspapers. Think of it as the military version of Parade magazine.

"With the transition of U.S. military going on missions and training, we felt it was important to get our information stateside," said Dan Krause, international advertising director of Stars and Stripes.

Naturally, the paper is setting its sights on publishers near military bases. But Krause declined to name any papers that had agreed to run the publication as of yet.

... Star and Stripes is owned and operated by the Department of Defense (DOD). Krause emphasized that it's not the house organ of the DOD; rather, the paper is editorially independent and can call on Congress should there be any interference.

Every bit as subtle, and much cheaper in spreading the national Gospel of Redemptive Violence.
