The Re-Packaging of Lisa Page
1) Also known as “He broke me”
2) On November 8th of this year Lawfare founder Benjamin Wittes sent a rather curious tweet proclaiming his undying devotion to former FBI lawyer Lisa Page. At the time it seemed rather odd and out of no-where; but today it makes sense.
2) On November 8th of this year Lawfare founder Benjamin Wittes sent a rather curious tweet proclaiming his undying devotion to former FBI lawyer Lisa Page. At the time it seemed rather odd and out of no-where; but today it makes sense.
3) At the time of Witte’s tweet Lisa Page was scheduling her coming out narrative, and consulting with the DOJ/FBI “beach friend” community for PR advice.
4) After several weeks of planning and careful roll-out organization, noted by several weeks of contact with mutually aligned journalists, today Ms. Page steps into the spotlight with her introductory article in the Daily Beast, aptly titled: “Lisa Page Speaks“.
5) Yes, yes, of course Lisa Page says she’s a victim to the horrible President Trump and the exposure of “private affair”, and the exposure of her “political texts and biases” etc. etc.
6) However, that’s not what is really interesting…. Within the article there’s a very specific and very familiar type of victim narrative construct.
7) When you read the article it jumps out at you.
8) The victim narrative is from the exact same acting coaches hired by the FBI and used by Dr. Christine Blasey-Ford...
9) It’s actually a little spooky how both Ms. Ford and Ms. Page could sound so identical, until we realize the same FBI and media people have constructed both victim storyboards.
10) It helps to remember this is the Public Relations advice from the DC-based DOJ/FBI committee consultants. AKA: "Beach Friends"...
11) The DOJ/FBI ‘above the law’ crowd of beach friends assemble in the Lawfare conference room; look at the latest resistance storyboards, and plan the Lisa Page marketing, advertising and branding campaign.
The resulting media strategy started last night.
