Researchers Identify 200 Websites That ?Reliably Echo Russian Propaganda? to Millions

You think they're gonna block the sites? Throttle them? Do nothing?

?They want to essentially erode faith in the U.S. government or U.S. government interests,? Clint Watts, a researcher for the Foreign Policy Research Institute, told The Washington Post. ?This was their standard mode during the Cold War. The problem is that this was hard to do before social media.?

Russia had a hand in spreading fake news to millions of Americans during the election cycle, according to two independent research groups, PropOrNot and Foreign Policy Research Institute.

The Washington Post was the first media outlet to report PropOrNot?s findings that there are over 200 websites described as ?routine peddlers of Russian propaganda during the election season, with combined audiences of at least 15 million Americans.? The most recognizable names on the list of ?sites that reliably echo Russian propaganda? include Alex Jones? Infowars, Julian Assange?s Wikileaks and Matt Drudge?s Drudge Report. Others include The Federalist Papers, ZeroHedge, the Free Thought Project and USAPoliticsNow.

PropOrNot wrote, ?Please note that our criteria are behavioral. That means the characteristics of the propaganda outlets we identify are motivation-agnostic. For purposes of this definition it does not matter whether the sites listed here are being knowingly directed and paid by Russian intelligence officers, or whether they even knew they were echoing Russian propaganda at any particular point: If they meet these criteria, they are at the very least acting as bona-fide ?useful idiots? of the Russian intelligence services, and are worthy of further scrutiny.?

The decision to add Wikileaks to the list will backfire, destroys their own credibility

Arrange & Wikileaks destroyed their credibility with Americans this election. You're in the U.K. Peter so you don't get that.

Is there any evidence that Wikileaks is linked to Russia, or is it just speculation?

Now the shoe is on the other foot, you are admitting the Russian stuff is just conspiracy, the mainstream media ridicules conspiracy, so hence they lose all credibility when pushing their own unproven conspiracy theories.

Hacked Podesta emails speak for themselves, the democrats dug their own graves, internal corruption stopped Bernie, a man who would easily have dominated Trump. You guys would be better outing the dark forces of corruption within the party you support which allowed Trump to snatch victory rather than attacking those who are exposing it

Whenever you post propaganda and we post debunking proof, you go silent, no response, and the thread dies. Assange is paid by Russia for his RT show. They have close ties including his many televised Russian leaders interviews.

You're on the other side now, you have to debunk and show proof that Russia doesn't work with Assange.
