Russian-linked fake news sites have been cropping up in the U.S., posing as local news organizations. These sites, such as D.C. Weekly and the New York News Daily, are designed to spread Kremlin propaganda among a mix of real and fake news stories. Using advanced technology, these sites aim to influence public discourse and possibly interfere in the upcoming U.S. presidential election. The sites mimic traditional American journalism, updating with current news but also containing incomplete and poorly constructed elements. The goal is to lend credibility to the disinformation spread on social media. The Kremlin has used similar tactics before, and these fake news sites are likely a prelude to interference in the election cycle.
