    My dear sweet child, governments use private companies to communicate to their citizens all the time.

    They advertise on TV, they have ads on bus shelters, they give interviews on commercial radio and TV stations. Even systems like emergency broadcast systems use cellular networks and TV and radio stations run by private companies.

    Even government websites are seldom hosted on their own servers.

    Using a third party website specifically set up to communicate short, sharp, and to the point messaging as one way of getting information out is just sensible.
