Why Is Facebook Full Of Katie Couric CBD Scams?

1

This week is probably our weirdest and most confusing rabbit hole ever. We looked into why Facebook is full of posts claiming that Katie Couric has met some kind of “tragic end” and why they’re all advertising CBD gummies. We think we figured out how it happened, but it was a real rats nest. We also continue to analyze the info war surrounding Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

We talk about content. How it's made. Why it's good. Why it's very bad. Sorry in advance for the British bits.
