Unfortunately, this report confirms that many journalists are naive when it comes to Russian information warfare. By using the 'Pravda network's' free content, they amplify Russian narratives in major publications, thereby harming their audience and themselves by aiding Russia's aggressive war.

ISD has built a free browser extension to help individuals recognise Pravda network sites, which hundreds of media outlets still treat as credible.
