The Hill: US accuses Zero Hedge of spreading Kremlin propaganda
U.S. intelligence officials are accusing the conservative financial news website Zero Hedge of spreading Russian propaganda.
The officials, who spoke to The Associated Press, pointed the figure at a number of stories published by Zero Hedge that accused the U.S. government of overly raising alarms about the prospects of a Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Some of those stories were written by people affiliated with the Strategic Culture Foundation, an organization sanctioned by the Biden administration for allegedly contributing to Russia's interference in the 2020 election, according to the AP.

WNU Editor: Zero Hedge has been online for a long time, and they post stories from multiple stories and sources. It is also one of my go-to places to obtain news and information that the main stream media refuses to report.
So why the US government broadside against Zero Hedge?
There are many reasons, the chief reason being that it covers news and stories that main stream organizations refuse to cover. This approach towards the news has made it a popular site, and they have earned their audience by having a track record of accuracy and honesty that many main stream media organizations cannot match.
Zero Hedge also represents one of the many growing independent news websites that cannot be controlled and/or influenced by the government. Not surprising, this inability to influence and control the message appears to be bothering some individuals in the US intel community, and they are now making their opinions (and smears) publicly known.
