I've followed this woman for about 15 years.  

If it's computer tech challenges, she probably has the answer.

Where does that tie in with Kim Komando's article ?

you serious? an msm having a fake news story reputing its against fake news, all the while being a chief instigator. where does it fit in? unless of course you started this thread to show msm hypocrasy. and did not think the arty dance was hipocracy

Sharing is always one click away on social media. Not many people take the time to research before spreading an article, photo, or video

I started the thread to share great technical info from a trusted author;  not meant to discuss MSM in general.  

I will not continue this "headin' for a topic derail" direction with you.

another topic, another day J.

Aside from the Russian/Chinese propaganda machines the net is full of "influencers" who actually get paid for their insanity.

I was waiting for a show to come on tv a few weeks ago and some stupid reality show was running late, Big Brother I think, so I had to sit through 10-15 minutes of that rubbish.

There were these 2 really really dumb, smug, arrogant, spiteful women on.   I was thinking "who the hell are these 2 idiots?"

Turned out they were social media "influencers" who get paid extremely well to 'influence' people.  They have millions of followers who spread their every word yet here they are openly lying and manipulating people for their own game and still people spread their propaganda.

These 2 faux 'celebrities' had the IQ (between them) of a guppy and are what many look to for news.

It is very simple, even a caveman can do it. If BHO, Bush, Penn and Soros agree on something, it is best to go in the opposite direction

You missed the other liars, Biden, Harris, Pelosi, Schiff, Nadler, AOC, Omar and the DNC to name a few.
