Never heard that one before. Sorry for the tangent, but is this a reference to the CIA’s “Mighty Wurlitzer”?

Yeah, though now I'm realizing it's a more unique/deanonymizing phrase than I anticipated... sometime in the 2000s it transitioned to being used to describe right-wing media circle jerks. I think it's something I picked up from the liberal blogosphere during its heyday.
