Julian Assange has made it clear what his research has uncovered about the 'research' used by one of FRN's (Fort Russ News) opponents - the billionaire blog known as 'Vice News'. Over a month ago in December, Vice News wrote a hit piece in which Fort Russ was singularly named and singled out as a particularly pernicious outlet of 'fake news'.

Another is selective reporting that omits relevant facts. This is how propaganda works to create faked news. The author of the Atlantic article, Julia Ioffe, put a period rather than a comma at the end of the text about not wanting to appear pro-Trump or pro-Russia, and completely omitted WikiLeaks’...
