Intra-EU Disinformation: the French website managed by a Polish far-right network
How the so-called French media outlet France Libre 24 – which uses disinformation to sow polarisation in society – hides the fact that it’s managed by a Polish far-right network.
Research is a core part of what we do. It involves identifying, uncovering, and explaining disinformation campaigns and networks, using open source investigation techniques (OSINT) and social media network analysis methodologies. We disseminate our findings via our partnerships with the media and leading experts in the field.
