Finská novinářka Jessikka Aro popsala fungování petrohradské trollí továrny na dezinformace, kterou financoval ruský oligarcha blízký prezidentu Vladimiru Putinovi. Výsledky její práce vyústily v drsnou mstu. Přesto se novinářka nevzdala a v knize Putinovi trollové líčí nejen svůj příběh, ale i známé případy kritiků dezinformačních aktivit, jako je finančník Bill Browder či vyšetřovatel skupiny Bellingcat Eliot Higgins.

More than a decade has passed since the last comprehensive survey of U.S. journalists was carried out in 2002 by scholars at Indiana University—and the news and the journalists who produce it have undergone dramatic changes and challenges. The American Journalist in the Digital Age is based on interviews with a national probability sample of nearly 1,100 U.S. journalists in the fall of 2013 to document the tremendous changes that have occurred in U.S. journalism in the past decade, many of them due to the rise of new communication technologies and social media.
