- STRUCTURAL ENABLER — serves multiple campaigns over time. Documented by CRTA/Istinomer Feb 2026 as institutionalized propaganda infrastructure. Key finding: "spokespeople and tabloids generate noise, but it is the legitimizers who supply meaning." These actors do not originate narratives — they legitimize them through academic and professional authority. Appear on Informer, Pink, RTS as guests — monitored via channel tracking rather than individual social media. Not tracked individually by DisInt.ai — captured through outlet monitoring. Represents standing structural enabler: para-formations simulating independent expert opinion.
