there are material ads from groups like black lives matter that are authentic and shared on facebook or twitter .ast year and we have pretty strong digital forensic evidence that russia created fake pages -- was one of them, for example, on facebook, where they did try to promote events as though they were americans or social organizers or other individuals, and doing so under that veneer, but it was a canard. it was someone in russia or st. petersburg or moscow on the computer pretending to be those people. has 2 billion people on it service and it has admitted as high as 200 million of those people are actually fake accounts. twitter has acknowledged that they have fake accounts on their platform as well. they say 5%. others say larger. there has been a mix of real and fake content on the internet and in the election, what occurred is a reflection of that. going forward, people need to understand what you see on the internet may not be from who it appears to be. journal"" wall street advised that there is a political aspect to this investigation. it cars them with the russia brush. -- a free
