Israel tech site paying “interns” to covertly plant stories in social media | The Electronic Intifada

AIPAC-linked Israel PR site pays operatives to plant stories in social media

 

An investigation by The Electronic Intifada has revealed that the online publication Israel21c
is hiring students as “digital ambassadors” to plant its stories in
online discussion forums and social media without revealing that they
work for the publication.


Israel21c is part of propaganda efforts aimed to improve
Israel’s image and distract from Israel’s occupation, abuse and
massacres of Palestinians.
