So who are these "some" that " estimates chat (sp?) it as 2/3 of the top "verified" right-wing accounts that were not tied to a personal figure (general accounts like, "MAGA News Now", etc..." were confirmed to be foreign operated."???

You know you are losing the argument when you link a "MSN" article. LOL


MSN is not a news publisher. All they do is aggregate articles so you don't have to read them on their private site/platform, it's more accessible than trying to navigate private sites in many cases. It's basically just a Microsoft news organizer. The fact that you think it is a news outlet means you are losing the argument by default...

Are you saying that there is no left leaning slant being used in the selection of articles they present? Have you ever paid any attention when using MSN.com? Heck, even my AI assistant knows they are left leaning. They get a bunch of their articles from MSNBC! Who would have guessed that!?!?!?

Who doesn't have a slant of some sort?

Did you ever read newspapers (old style)on paper?

Probably every week, there was at least 2 letters to the editor from two people claiming opposite bias about the exact same article.

You mean a software news aggregator features articles from licensed news sites? I'm not even sure what point you are making.

Also, having a bias does not mean untrue. If MSNBC publishes a stat about Trump, it is not wrong simply because they don't like Trump. Bias does not equate to factualness, it just equates to what is covered.

So yes, virtually all MAGAS being foreign controlled is more interesting to left-leaning news outlets. It does not mean the story is false. Right-wing outlets just can't cover it until they get clearance from the Kremlin.
