Russian Election Misinformation Campaign Re-Emerges

Facebook removed 13 accounts and two pages from its social media platform in August that had links to the Internet Research Agency, the Russian group that waged a disinformation campaign in 2016. The company received a tip from the FBI about the activity, Facebook says. The removal of the accounts comes amid concern that Russia, along with other countries, is stepping up its efforts to interfere in the November elections.”]
