Russian Disinformation Networks Detailed in New State Department Report

8/6/20
Four outlets, Global Research (which the State Department has determined has the most reach), New Eastern Outlook, SouthFront, and Strategic Culture Foundation, shared 141 articles between two sites within the group during the period in question. “Of particular note, Global Research re-posted 50 videos originally published by SouthFront. Because of this pattern of cross-posting content, these four outlets formed an especially interconnected set of nodes within the broader network of the seven websites examined,” said the State Department, in its report. U.S. officials estimate the size of Global Research’s audience as more than 12 million visits during the review time, ) with more than 4 million visits for Southfront, one million for the Strategic Culture Foundation; and 540,000 for New Eastern Outlook.

I thought it important that this information be made available here to Debate Politics members and our Internet visitors.

Some members of DP use material from Global Research.
 
Is the right wing nothing but "witting or unwitting" Russian tools?

Witting. Definitely witting.

Rudy Giuliani, Ron Johnson, Devin Nunes, and Jim Jordan are accepting smear materials from an individual that graduated from the KGB University in Moscow.
