I'm not 100% sure, but I'm pretty sure the meme and OP are both referring to Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent.

Exactly, It's a commonly cited example from Manufacturing Consent because he broke it down really well there. But everybody who just read Chomsky for the first time then goes out and tries to correlate every single front-page story with the back-page story it's supposed to be covering up, like they've only ever used a single propaganda technique or being predictable wouldn't undermine the value of the propaganda.

It's not really hard.

There's straight up disinformation, doublespeak, dogwhistles, reliance on fallacy, appeals to authority fear and prejudice, ad hominems, cherry picking, demonization/dehumanization of opponents, etc.
