During our investigation into Twitter hate accounts targeting Meghan and Harry, we observed hate accounts interacting with "royal experts." Because of the unusual relationship between the accounts, we expanded our investigation, and here is what we found: botsentinel.com/newsroom/repor…
Angela Levin’s interactions with hate accounts were more than all other journalists' and royal commentators' interactions combined. Angela had 102 interactions, and the majority were favorable to the hate accounts. 
On one occasion, Murky__Meg, a now-suspended hate account, tweeted a conspiracy theory about Meghan and Harry paying $1.5 million to appear on the cover of Time Magazine. Angela amplified Murky__Meg’s tweet, and then three days later, Angela repeated the conspiracy theory on TV.
On another occasion, Angela asked another now-suspended hate account, YankeeWally2, to tell her more about a bizarre Photoshop conspiracy theory regarding Meghan and Harry.
As recent as this morning, Angela retweeted a previously suspended hate account that frequently tweets disinformation and racist rhetoric.
Although we limited our investigation to ten journalists and royal commentators, our research demonstrated two royal experts amplified hate accounts, and at least in one instance, a hate account influenced a journalist's reporting.
