This really isn't a music term, even though it sounds like it might be.

"Mouthpiece of the government" is a colloquial term which is usually employed on people who are perceived as putting forth the government's agenda when they speak as if saying their own thoughts.

Thus, CBS, NBC and CNN, who are voraciously putting forth President Obama's agenda as something we all really want are acting as mouthpieces of the government, whereas Rush Limbaugh's EIB network is least likely to earn that sobriquet.

Often, in the past, the term was reserved for politicians, Senators and Congressmen, who were officially not connected to the White House, but who would say things that agreed with White House policy, and disagreed with their fellow party members. Use of the term has spread. It has the same weight of favor as "Quisling", "Traitor" and "sell-out."
