Congratulations Comrade Compatriot, you'll been made Chairperson of the Disinformation Governance Board and as Chair, you will be given the privilege of nominating four highly qualified candidates for this Board, whose express purpose is to review questions of privacy and civil liberty, addressing and combating the spread of mis-,dis-, and malinformation as well as the formation, research and implementation of 'best practices' to offer the government and key corporate media partners guidance regarding mis-,dis- and malinformation.

We've screened ten highly qualified candidates for you to choose from. Best of luck Chairwo/man! If you do a good job, we might even increase your funding and discretionary authority.

1. Jacob Caine (Command & Conquer): 6'1 (1.85 meters), 192 IQ. Jacob Caine is a political advisor with foreign policy expertise in Russia including the Former Soviet Union, Africa, the Middle East and Eastern Europe. He also excels in media relations, religious studies and information studies.

2. Carl Gerhard Busch (The X-Files): High level advisor to both the Pentagon and Department of Justice, Carl (CGB to his friends) is a seasoned bureaucrat who knows how to get things done. Army veteran and started his long illustrious career serving with the State Department. Expert on aliens, illegal and otherwise.

3. Squealer (Animal Farm): Talking Pig. Looks good in a suit. Excellent oratory... for a porcine.

4. Alpharius Omegon (Warhammer 40K): Respected Military Veteran and Officer. Long Term Strategic planning background. Diversity bonus in that he identifies as Nonbinary in personality.

5. James Morgan McGill (Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul): Distinguished lawyer with expertise in corporate, business, real estate and elder law as well as a distinguished career as a public defender and small business entrepreneur based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Also has retail experience.

6, Scar (The Lion King): Noble background that Hails from Africa. Military background as leader of the Lion Guard in his native country and a wounded warrior. Known as a political unifier in his home country. Excellent public speaker.

7. Sheev Palpatine (Star Wars): Distinguished Senator with a History of Public Service from Naboo. Comes from an esteemed family and is an avid collector of art, and appreciator of opera and other media. History of coalition building and mentorship.

8. Simon "Sissy" Skinner (Hot Fuzz): Businessman and Entrepeneur, Simon Skinner is also a leader of his local villages Neighborhood Watch, leader of local small businesses and trophy winning 'fun-runner.' It's partly thanks to his stewardship and business and political acumen, as well as his conscientious nature, that have helped make his local community, Somerfield, a constant runner up in "Village of the Year."

9. Baal (Stargate): Foreign born business magnate who owns and operates numerous high net worth corporations around the world and is the leader of 'The Trust' which is a conclave of corporate leaders, intelligence professionals and public servants working to protect and defend Earth.

10. Yes Man (Fallout: New Vegas): Don't worry, he's been given programming to make him more independent of anyones control except yours!
 
1. Jacob Caine - He's going to be the calm voice of the Committee. The Face that all the people see and trust.
4. Alpharius Omegon - He's got a lot going for him. Essentially immortal, he'll be a constant anchor that can steer the Committee through the generations and ensure LONG TERM goals are maintained despite setback. His contingency planning will be awesome.
7. Sheev Palpatine - The Force...to sense the mood of the population and maybe...just maybe...tweek it a little!
9. Baal - Another immortal...almost, and has immense pull with the corporate world, intel and public service sectors. His influence alone is reason to bring him on, but his planning ability is huge as well.

Aside from the Face, which can be replaced as time marches on...the 3 most powerful choices are there to counterbalance each other as well. None of them will be able to control the other, and all will know if any of the others try to gain control of Caine. So, it's actually a well balanced Committe!
 
I'm going with Squealer, Scar, Sheev Palpatine, and Hexxus (from Fern Gully and not listed) because they seem to know what they're doing.
