Below is what I was trying to forward to the list. In it Terry talks about
who some of the #NEVERHillary people are. I apologize if the earlier post
was confusing.

Yes, that's the point - these sites are supporting Trump.  They are
pro-Assad, pro-Russia, pro-Trump.  They exchange each others' articles and
memes.  Some of them have no board of directors, no funding sources, no
ads.  Some like globalresearch.ca have been around for awhile but others
have just been around a couple of years.  They have influenced how people
think on Syria and it seems they are also influencing people regarding the
elections.  I have progressive friends who have occasionally posted one of
their articles smearing Hillary.  They have contributed to increasing the
negatives around Hillary with their hundreds of exaggerated stories.

Where does their money come from?  You need staff to do a webpage, facebook
page with new articles and memes every day.  The Anti-Media lists 22 people
on their "team" and they have no ads, no grants, no visible sources for
their funding.  Former staff from Mint Press thought the hundreds of
thousands funding the organization came from the editor's father-in-law's
Iranian connections.

Russia does have a history of disinformation campaigns.

We need articles that look at the disinformation on these sites and at
least question where their funding comes from.
