The Democrats are doing what they accused the Russians of doing in 2016. They are gathering in 25 million dollars to set up websites disguised as legitimate news sources, and they plan to put liberal agenda talking points all across the net.
The plot will be carried out by Obama administration officials and Obama era journalists.
Tara McGowan, a digital producer for Obama for America in 2011, is raising $25 million from wealthy liberals, and she will use the money to form what will be called the Courier Newsroom.
These fake news sites will concentrate on swing states and will try to turn the tide in favor of the Democrats.
Do you think FB, Google, or Twitter will ban them even though their goal is to distort the news?
The Courier Newsroom will not inform readers that it is a liberal project and not a real news site. In other words, they will be intentionally deceptive.
You can expect fake news galore from them.
McGowan is also the proprietor of a nonprofit group called Acronym that will spend $75 million on digital ads to rebut President Trump’s edge in battleground states.
She put together the Virginia Dogwood and Arizona’s Copper Courier, among others that are expected to roll out in Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Wisconsin, all battleground states. The Dogwood publishes articles that appear to be local in an effort to help develop trust among readers in the area.
McGowan said the idea is to fill the areas where local news outlets are disappearing. She is also the proprietor of a nonprofit group called Acronym that will spend $75 million on digital ads to rebut what Democrats believe is President Donald Trump’s insurmountable edge in battleground states.
She explained to Bloomberg Businessweek how her operations work and what kind of information they can extract from readers.
