General who led shadowy army psy-ops unit is new Economist defence editor
The UK legacy media are having a normal one again. The Economist magazine just announced a currently serving British Army general would become its new defence editor upon leaving the military. Turner led 77 Brigade, the army’s propaganda unit, from 2020 to 2022. Current defence editor Shashank Joshi announced Turner as his replacement on 18 June: I’m delighted that Alex Turner will succeed me as defence editor of @TheEconomist later this year. Alex, who is currently an army officer, is highly experienced, an accomplished military historian and a talented writer. He will be a fantastic journalist. https://t.co/kqgT3E39uz — Shashank Joshi (@shashj)…
