Facebook has cracked down on a fake news campaign targeted at discrediting #ManCity. Users were directed to bogus stories which reported persistent slurs against the Premier League champions. [
@MailSport

One such article accused the UAE of spending heavily on #ManCity to 'hide its human rights violations and contributions to the menacing wars in Yemen and Libya'. [
@MailSport

Social media company Graphika, probed a series of anti-City stories on a now-removed website named the Mirror Herald. In the stories, and social media posts, #ManCity's owners were accused of 'sportswashing'.

A lot of detail in this report https://graphika.com/uploads/graphika_report_operation_redcard.pdf

It shows an elaborate plot based in India and backed by the Qataris. This is undoubtedly part of the long-running smear campaign against City. I wonder how many of the well-known Twitter trolls who work for the British broadsheets are involved in this. The PR firm behind this fake news operation is said to be Delhi-based ARep Global. But who commissoned them to do it?
