What its pages say

Quoted word for word from sans.org.

In their own words
“In today’s information environment, manipulation isn’t an anomaly—it’s a strategy. Individuals, media organizations, and foreign governments all shape information to influence what people believe, how they behave, and where their attention goes. Some do it for profit, some for power, and others simply to push a narrative that benefits their interests.” About page
