"1) advertiser pulled $$ . . . 2) US far-right attacks advertiser 3) Russians super-amplify"

So. Breaking this down.
1) advertiser pulled $$ from disagreeable far-right content (Hannity)
2) US far-right attacks advertiser
3) Russians super-amplify

Which is another example of how info ops can have commercial/financial impact





Per @SecureDemocracy's Russian propaganda tracker (3pm):

-#BoycottKeurig is now the #1 overall hashtag & #1 trending hashtag in Russian-linked influence networks (20,300% increase in use).

-"Keurig" is the #1 topic in Russian-linked influence networks (35,600% increase in use)

'Hot' coffee maker about two months ago. I love it. Our local mega-grocer (Wegman's, Rochester, NY) has K-Cups that are recyclable. That's the only reason I bought it, 'cause I can't see throwing all of those little plastic cups into a landfill.

Anyway, I think I'll go out and buy another for my daughter's family. Just to let Keurig know I appreciate their boycott of Hannity's poison!

They work overtime to support Fox News .
No wonder the right denies Russian interference so strongly.
