Description
Vladimir Putin is a leader who has masterminded geopolitical misinformation. Instead of leaflets, TV-commercials and posters, Putin accomplishes his feat using much simpler, cheaper and more effective means. He uses bots that spread misinformation on social media, including Facebook and Twitter, anonymously-operated third party sites that churn out fake news, and official state-run news RT and Sputnik.
