Well, it's a move straight out of the Dictator's Handbook (http://www.dictatorshandbook.net). See the chapter on Press, Media, and Communications (http://dictatorshandbook.net/book/node236.html).

I think the irony here is learning that everyone does it, and everyone is *shocked, shocked I say* to find out that others are doing it too.
