So, who noticed that the article's headline is:
"Google uncovered Russia-backed ads on YouTube, Gmail: report"
... but when giving the details in the article, G&M writes:
"Google has uncovered less than $100,000 in ad spending potentially linked to Russian actors, the source said."
So, the headline is obviously a falsehood, since Google is not certain that the ads in question are from Russians.
.
Also, notice this false sentence:
"The ads do not appear to be from the same Kremlin-affiliated entity that bought ads on Facebook Inc"
.
Facebook hasn't ever brought up the Kremlin, and isn't even certain that the $100k of ads in question were bought by Russians. They released 2 reports on the matter, and clarified that they are only allowing the possibility that the ads, which were non-political, might have been bought from accounts associated with each other, "and likely operated out of Russia."
.
"Likely" does not mean "are", and certainly doesn't mean "Kremlin."
