NBCSEP 3 2024
Meta Monday said Russian state media majors Russia Today, Rossiya Segodnya, and others were banned from its platforms globally for deceptive "influence operations."
Meta "expanded our ongoing enforcement against Russian state media" days after US officials blocked 32 such websites allegedly spreading disinformation.
It will reportedly begin enforcing the ban over the next several days. Russia, meanwhile, has denied running any disinformation campaign in other countries.
