The burden, after the hoax of Russiagate, is on The New York Times to prove that its reporting on Russia is not fraudulent, is not a forgery, is not an anti-Russian variation on the anti-Semitic theme of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Accordingly, today’s story about Russian trolling of the Women’s March (against Trump) and the pushback against Linda Sarsour for her anti-Semitism for purpose of causing chaos (NYT forgot the sowing discord part) is facially not believable. (Since when have Russians made anti-Semites uncomfortable?)
September 19, the lead story in The New York Times carried this headline in the print edition: “Trolls in Russia Schemed to Divide Women’s March.”
