Media: MGIMO students write texts for the Russian fake factory
Russian propaganda pseudo -reciprocal sites are created using MGIMO students, says the Media Point with reference to the source that took part in the work of this fake factory.
“Vacancies” for work at a university are divided among students' acquaintances, but sometimes they are distributed in open chats of language clubs. Officially, candidates are offered “writing or translation of articles”, but after a small test task they are told that in fact they will engage in “creating a positive image of Russia”. The authors of the factory receive from 100 to 120 thousand rubles, translators - 80 thousand rubles.
What caused a new patriotic srach and how the “image of a Russian warrior” was born in it of a policy of 5 minutes of reading
“If at first the governments of a particular European country were simply criticized in the texts, and the authors themselves could determine topics, then over time they began to demand a clear propaganda position from us,” a source of journalists said. The themes of articles, as the authors of the text, can repeat the usual propaganda cliches or adapt to the current agenda or events, for example, elections in the European Parliament or Olympics.

“Point” also notes that in the editorial office of the fake factories, technical specifications were set for astrologers “experts” on propaganda sites, sports content, texts for women, as well as on the topics of health, the life of celebrities and conspiracy materials were prepared. The organizers were helped by European students and other ideological supporters of the Russian regime who had the opportunity to register sites of sites on real EU citizens and interview with “experts”-foreigners without an emphasis.
“Most of the guys initially did not believe in what they wrote. It was perceived rather as something absurd. The main or, perhaps, even the only reason why people were delayed there is money, ”said the source of the publication. He noted that he left this work as soon as he had a financial opportunity for this.
