这份法轮功的报纸，几年间大大兴起，因为他的新战略从反共变成了挺川普。于是对于华人来说一切都合一了，一切的阴谋论也都变得炙手可热了。
How The Epoch Times Created a Giant Influence Machine
Since 2016, the Falun Gong-backed newspaper has used aggressive Facebook tactics and right-wing misinformation to create an anti-China, pro-Trump media empire.

Misinfotmation they spread according to The New York Times
1. involving claims that Obama administration officials illegally spied on Mr. Trump’s 2016 campaign.
2. they have promoted the unfounded theory that the coronavirus — which the publication calls the “CCP Virus,” in an attempt to link it to the Chinese Communist Party — was created as a bioweapon in a Chinese military lab.
3. an article falsely claiming that Bill Gates and other elites are “directing” the Covid-19 pandemic and allegations about a “Jewish mob” that controls the world
他们的壮大手段
Using “click farms,” firms that generate fake traffic by paying people to click on certain links over and over again.
But last year, The Epoch Times was barred from advertising on Facebook where it had spent more than $1.5 million over seven months
Since being barred from advertising on Facebook, The Epoch Times has moved much of its operation to YouTube, where it has spent more than $1.8 million on ads since May 2018, according to Google’s public database of political advertising.
我不反对一个媒体有自己的政治倾向，支持哪个党，反对哪个党都是自由。但是炮制事实，制造阴谋论，利用网上自媒体平台给人洗脑，这是很危险的。如果这些和再权力结合，那杀伤力不知道是不是和独裁一样可怕。我不是一个专业人士，但这些专业人士的挖掘，让我背后发凉。
