“House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman James Comer (R-Ky) and Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation Chairwoman Nancy Mace (R-SC) are investigating organized efforts, undertaken in violation of Wikipedia platform rules, to influence US public opinion on important and sensitive topics by manipulating Wikipedia articles. In a letter to Wikimedia Foundation Chief Executive Officer Maryana Iskander, Chairman Comer and Subcommittee Chairwoman Mace request documents and information related to actions by Wikipedia volunteer editors caught violating platform policies, as well as Iskander’s efforts to thwart intentional, organized efforts to inject bias into sensitive topics.”
“‘Multiple studies and reports have highlighted efforts to manipulate information on the Wikipedia platform for propaganda aimed at Western audiences. One recent report raised troubling questions about potentially systematic efforts to advance antisemitic and anti-Israel information in Wikipedia articles related to conflicts with the State of Israel,’ wrote the lawmakers. ‘A second investigation detailed actions by hostile nation-state actors to expose Western audiences to pro-Kremlin and anti-Western messaging by manipulating Wikipedia articles and other news outlets relied on for training AI chatbots,'” write the two southern idiots in a press release. This is the best AIPAC can get.
