Introduction

CNN's John Sutter found a list of accounts linked to Russian influence on Twitter. He says it was compiled by think tank Hamilton 68, which has CIA vets on its board. The group identified 644 accounts and used them to create fake news stories about events in the U.S., he says. But under that were real media figures like David Horowitz or Dennis Michael Lynch who never knew they were targets for this research organization," Sutter writes.
