Shea and Gardner's notification is required under the terms of FARA (the Foreign Agents Registration Act).  FARA attempts to "insure that the American public and its law makers know the source of information (propaganda) intended to sway public opinion, policy, and laws. In 1938, the FARA was Congress' response to the large number of German propaganda agents in the pre-WWII U.S." <http://www.usdoj.gov/criminal/fara/q_A.htm>
