Western media outlets are fervently perpetuating the narrative of "Russian meddling in the US election."
As this fabricated story intensifies, marked by sanctions, indictments, and the seizure of web domains labeled as "influenced by the Kremlin" according to US officials, an increasing number of media sources are jumping on the bandwagon.
The New York Times noted that American spy agencies have assessed that the Kremlin "favors" Donald Trump, and warned how the US was "caught flat-footed in 2016" over Russia’s alleged (and unproven) endeavors to ‘influence’ American elections.

The Washington Post dove in for a closer look at what it described as a pro-Trump "supergroup" allegedly bankrolled by Russia. The six right-wing influencers involved are currently engaged in damage control, asserting on social media that if the allegations prove to be true, they should be regarded as "victims" of this supposed "plot."

Together, the content-creators boasted a cumulative YouTube subscriber count of 7.16 million, noted the outlet.
