Our independent and honest journalists could write a great article about how Vitali Klitschko fought the rally against him.
First. Almost the entire week before the rally Klitschko spent about $400 thousand on an information campaign against the action. Soldiers were asked to record appeals to people urging them not to attend the rally. Those videos were published in all media and social networks using bots.
Second. Paid activists were brought to the rally with cardboard signs supporting bloggers and activists who supposedly should be brought into power. Then they photographed those people and, for money, spread the photos through the media and social networks using bots.
Third. In almost all honest and independent media outlet there was a stop‑list for covering the rally against Klitschko. Some outlets didn’t cover the action at all; others presented it as neutrally as possible, as a fleeting news item.
Fourth. Klitschko filmed a staged video suggesting that activists were paid money to participate in the rally. Then this story was massively pushed in the media and on social networks using bots, spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on the information campaign.
Fifth. At the same time, bots on Threads massively amplified the necessary talking points both before and after the rally, trying to discredit the action and create the impression that paid people were behind it.
Result: about $400 thousand for the initial information campaign and up to $1 million in total to counter the rally over the past five days.
We are talking about money that was stolen from Kyiv residents.
But our independent and honest journalists will not write a single major article about this. They will not investigate who financed the campaign, who paid for the publications, and who organized the information attack.
Why?
Because those very journalists who are supposed to tell the truth themselves receive money from Vitali Klitschko.
