You'd have thought publicising them would involve not only saying they exist, but also educating people about what the misinformation is. As far as I can tell from a quick scan, the article doesn't talk about the message the proganda is pushing. I'm just as clueless as before about what I should believe and what I shouldn't.

Are the public just meant to know when they're being lied to?

Yes this should have been done better. I remember when they did the same thing in the USA they at least listed all of them so you could to see what they were up to.
