Shadow Politics: Meet The Digital Sleuth Exposing Fake News

[Wired] Buried in media scholar Jonathan Albright's research was proof of a massive political misinformation campaign. Now he's taking on the the world's biggest platforms before it's too late.

A lengthy expose on the modern day mechanics of disinformation and public manipulation. The graphic displayed in this article appears to be a Palantir data-analysis product.

#1 Don't need digital sleuths.
1. See if their lips are moving?
2. Are they typing away at their computer?
3. Do they work for any of the MSM outlets.
4. Are they a Democrat?

I would really love to see Foxworthy do a routine like that.

#3 "The day before, Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee published all 3,500 ads Russian trolls bought on Facebook in the run-up to the election. Aside from Albright’s own collection, it was the most thorough look yet at how Russia had used social media to try to influence American voters."

Apparently, the only interest group(s) capable of influencing deplorables are those with (however apparitional) Russian ties.

Planned Parenthood, Sierra Club, etc. not so much.
