This is information FROM Russia about a person that worked for a Russian troll farm explaining how they were trained, and what they were supposed to do. Pay particular attention to the outlets they were supposed to target, the Washington Post and New York Times whom Trump called fake news.
"The Russians who worked for a notorious St. Petersburg “troll factory” that was part of Vladimir Putin’s campaign to influence the 2016 presidential election were required to watch the “House of Cards” television series to help them craft messages to “set up the Americans against their own government,” according to an interview broadcast Sunday (in Russian) with a former member of the troll factory’s elite English language department.
The interview, broadcast by the independent Russian TV station Rain, provides new insight into how the troll factory formerly known as the Internet Research Agency targeted American audiences in part by posting provocative “comments” pretending to be from Americans on newspaper articles that appeared on the websites of the New York Times and Washington Post."
Russian trolls were schooled on ‘House of Cards’
