"But there was a clear skew in who shared links from the 91 sites the researchers had manually coded as “junk news” (based on breaching at least three of five quality standards including “professionalism”, “bias” and “credibility”). “The Trump Support group consumes the highest volume of junk news sources on Twitter, and spreads more junk news sources, than all the other groups put together. This pattern is repeated on Facebook, where the Hard Conservatives group consumed the highest proportion of junk news.”
I think its obvious a political group that associates itself with a president that throws little immigrant kids into concentration camps, or an organization like the NRA…which is responsible for killing untold numbers of children, would be the sole consumer’s of partisan propaganda in a society like ours.
So, let’s see.
Soros is a frequent target of conspiracy theories;
Trump has verbally attacked him;
The right wing media demonizes, etc…
THEREFORE, the only conclusion we can draw from this is it was either Trump, the right wing media or a right winger conspiracy theorist.
Good thing we have a criminal justice system. Even as circumstantial evidence there is a lot to be desired in the conclusion drawn.
Soros is a wealthy man. He didn’t get to be who he is because of Mother Teresa tendencies. The enemies he has accumulated over his lifetime have more personal grudge than care about his politics.
For all you know, he could have given someone a stock tip that went belly up and the person lost everything.
