Sep 6, 2024, 03:47 PM

YouTube has taken down five right-wing political channels following allegations from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) that Russian government employees were funding right-wing influencers in the United States to produce content. The channels, which included a conservative podcast network, were allegedly part of a Russian government project aimed at influencing the American public. This action comes after a DOJ indictment uncovered evidence linking these channels to Russian-funded activities.
