Showing results for "Propaganda" in Russian & Soviet

In today’s chaotic world, where the multiplication of information sources creates competing narratives, credibility is the key to winning the war of ideas. This is the reason why governments and corporations resort to astroturfing - creation of ostensibly grassroots movements set up to advance political agendas and commercial campaigns. The democratization of information and polarization of politics offer a perfect storm.

In this courageous and unflinching book, award-winning journalist Jessikka Aro interweaves her own dramatic story as a target of Russian social media propaganda with accounts from many internationally known critics of the Kremlin, who share their own stories of being targeted by Russia’s multifaceted cyber warfare campaigns.

America is in a new Cold War with Russia even more dangerous than the one the world barely survived in the 20th century. All of this is exacerbated by Washington’s war-like demonizing of the Kremlin leadership and by Russiagate’s unprecedented allegations. US mainstream media accounts are highly selective and seriously misleading. American “disinformation”, not only Russian, is a growing peril.

Nicht nur Putins Militärapparat, auch seine Propagandamaschine läuft seit dem Überfall auf die Ukraine im Februar 2022 auf Hochtouren: Im Netz führt die russische Regierung einen Cyberkrieg gegen unliebsame Zivilisten, Politiker und Institutionen aus dem In- und Ausland. In ihrem Debüt "Putins Armee der Trolle" legt die preisgekrönte – und wegen ihrer kritischen Berichterstattung verfolgte – finnische Investigativjournalistin Jessikka Aro die Strategien hinter der Propagandaschlacht des Kremls offen.
