Nightingale Russia/Junkpedia Junkpedia/Nightingale Russia: A Study in Duality*

Good Morning anonymous Nightingale Russia lurkers from Sweden. Going over our Junkpedia posts, we see. Yeah, true story. Every once in a while Junkpedia stops by this blog and does what you're doing now. We tried to join Junkpedia to see what the heck is going on in there, but they wouldn't let us. 

We got to honest with you guys in Helsinki. [You mean Stockholm-Ed?] That's the one. There's a not so dirty or secret truth about books, movies, TV, any kind of entertainment. There's no such thing as a bad review. It's true. Our work has been trashed by some alternate history blogs who really don't like us, and the result was a surge in sales, blog traffic, etc etc. So we get excited every time we see the latest post titled, 50 Ways William Stroock's new Novel Sucks.

Now, we see how you didn't link (ok one link, to the wrong page, BTW) back to this blog but instead used screenshots. Very clever. As the sheriffs asked in Reno 911, 'Excuse me, sir. You a Jew?'  Even so, your [puts on his fake but 100% believable Russian accent] 'Confessions of a contributor' article has generated zilch, nada. As the once and future president would say, Sad.

Will Gets a Visit from Junkpedia

As John Lennon once sang, well, well well....oh well...Looks like someone in some media organization is taking an interest in ourselves and this blog. Behold a group calling itself Junkpedia. Junkpedia describes itself thusly:

Junkipedia gives journalists, researchers and civil society organizations powerful tools to collect, track, analyze, and respond to mis- and disinformation spreading online. You can collect tips quickly and easily via tiplines, tag and classify each item submitted, and analyze narratives and identify trends in the data.

Our best guess is that someone, somewhere is doing another expose on Russian stuff and looking into our writing for Inforos. We admit we're excited, aroused even. 

We became aware of those nefarious Ruskis through our friend Sarah Abed, who wrote a lot about the Middle East for them at the time. We got Sarah to do a quick article about us and our Zionist stoogedom, which whoever is visiting this blog from Junkpedia can read here. That was our in with Moscow, and from there we've written more than 50 clearly marked and obvious op-ed pieces about American politics and foreign affairs, with brief forays into matters Israeli and British. All are available online and 99 and 44/100 percent true. 

When not writing Soviet, sorry, Russian disinformation we wander the streets of San Francisco looking for American nuclear wessels. We are paid a fixed sum for each article, the exact number is none of your business, but we assure you it is many, many rubles. Below is a photo of cash received in a midnight dead drop for helping tilt last year's British elections toward Boris Johnson and the Tories:

We've previously had gigs as a teacher, substitute teacher, college professor and researcher at CNN, way back in the 20th century.

Whoever you are, media request denied. Also learn to code.
