The Guardian: “A false claim circulating on social media that Kamala Harris was involved in an alleged hit-and-run in San Francisco in 2011 is the work of a covert Russian disinformation operation, according to new research by Microsoft.”
“Researchers found that the group created a video, paid an actor to appear as the alleged victim, and spread the claim through a fake website for a nonexistent San Francisco news outlet named KBSF-TV.
The Russian group responsible, which Microsoft dubs Storm-1516, is described as a Kremlin-aligned troll farm.”
