The president's recently created bureau has been compared to a department from George Orwell's dystopian classic '1984.'
Psaki said she couldn't provide many details other than saying the bureau would monitor misinformation on topics such as COVID-19 and elections.
Critics say the bureau is another example of the government trying to police free speech on the internet. This has led to some comparisons to's Ministry of Truth. The protagonist of Orwell's classic, Winston Smith, works in the ministry, a governmental department that controls information coming from news, entertainment, arts and education.
