What an unapologetic, sensationalist, and admittedly unsubstantiated(!) article!

Of course everything needs proper context, but here is the closest thing to "proof" of the claim the title of the article makes:

The officials interviewed in recent weeks said that, so far, they had seen no evidence of such cooperation. But the intercepts alarmed American intelligence and law enforcement agencies, in part because of the amount of contact that was occurring while Mr. Trump was speaking glowingly about the Russian president, Vladimir V. Putin.

Can any more experienced conspiracy followers enlighten me to whether or not this is how it has always been? Massive companies are being contracted to do nothing but manipulate and misinform people!

I completely understand suicide bombers now. If it had any effect, I would allahu ackbar myself directly in the middle of the NY Times building (ps, this is satire. Much like the articles they print as facts condemning Trump)

The officials interviewed in recent weeks said that, so far, they had seen no evidence of such cooperation.

ok.

Obviously I hate to give traffic to NYTimes. So if you don't want to go there it says, "The officials interviewed in recent weeks said that, so far, they had seen no such evidence of such cooperation." Done. No need to read all the other fluff. Fucking hatchet job. Stupid sheeple.
