Council on Foreign Relations gets star power: Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie has been elected a member of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), sources say. Almost all top government leaders of the past several decades have been members of that Rockefeller-linked organization.

As could be expected, the media covers this from an entertainment perspective ("ANGELINA A BABE AMID BRAINIACS", NYPost, link) rather than looking into what the CFR might be after. First, while it will give them a higher profile, she may serve as a pretty face for the group. Second, she may be able to help them get their ideas into popular culture, the same way that another group has been able to do.
