Having spent a huge chunk of time in "troll-land" last year, it's very nice to see our WSJ stories referenced in this.

Also, Americans should really read this bipartisan report.
From report: "No single group of Americans was targeted by IRA information operatives more than African-Americans."

Our story on how Russian trolls targeted blacks using a black business directory, self-defense lessons & police brutality petitions: wsj.com/articles/russi…
Also, per report: "paid ads were not key to the IRA's activity & are not alone an accurate measure of the IRA's operational scope, scale or objectives."

Our story about how social media cos- which talked a lot about ads- didn't disclose key info to public wsj.com/articles/only-…
And: "The Committee found that the IRA coopted unwitting Americans to engage in offline activities in furtherance of their objectives."

Our video piece featuring Skype interviews w/ Americans who got sucked in: wsj.com/video/how-russ…
"The Committee found that IRA activity on social media did not cease, but rather increased after Election Day 2016."

Here's our piece about how Russian trolls weighed in on Trump's Sec. of State pick, mostly slamming Romney and promoting Giuliani:
