Anybody paying attention to how weird GOP media has been becoming for over a decade has been speculating in this direction. It's good that the DOJ has finally done something. And lol, tenet media has folded.
This story was in The New York Times. During 2016 election The New York Times published thousands of stories about Clinton email/Benghazi, not one on Trumps lifelong ties to NY/Russian mob. As if The New York Times wasn't in a particularly knowledgeable position to report on 70 years of NYC construction & mob history. All the money in my pocket says The Paper of Record has been taking Russian money for decades.
New York Times front page, three days before the 2016 election:
Investigating Donald Trump, F.B.I. Sees No Clear Link to Russia
FUCK YOU NEW YORK TIMES

Yup! Remember Romney saying that Russia was our geopolitical enemy and Obama being the one who called that ridiculous? Ever since then the Republicans have had an absurd love affair with Putin.
To be fair, there was an honest gambit there with Our Pal Russia, the same one that was tried with China. It didn't work but it seemed like a fair thing to try, especially considering the economic constraints of the alternative.
Oh yeah, at the time Obama was right to try to repair relations with Russia. They’ve simply grown worse as they figured out how to poke at the world via information warfare.

"Secretly"
This is the dead giveaway that NYT does not give a SHIT about all the fucked up pro-Trump shit they've pulled. Not even a little.
This is why I have zero problems when conservatives want to shit on it. "Yeah!" I say. Even though yeah usually they have something good there. Liberal media - yeah right. Fuck.

Tucker reports his shock at the current turn of events from his summer home in St. Petersburg Florida. 😉😉
"Secretly" lmao
Come on now. Worst kept secret in politics.
Secretly?
Secretly?! 🤣👌🏼
Worst kept secret ever.
Secretly?
Shit, I'm from the UK and I don't know a single person here that doesn't already know that the Conservatives in the US are infested with russian mouth pieces.
Horribly kept secret if you can even call it one.
This seems like kind of a poorly kept secret...
Weren't they bragging about it back when Trump was in office?
Yep, it went from "Better Dead Than Red" in the late 20th century to "I'd rather be Russian than be a democrat" on actual t-shirts.

Companies should be dissolved. Men should go to prison. This is tantamount to treason
I think we should imprison the women involved as well

‘an American media company’
Fucking who? Why this protection through obfuscation. Ugh
They do in the article. It's Tenet, Dave Rubin, Dim Fool, and a third person are also named.
I’m just frustrated they use this technique to drag people into the article. Maybe I just wanna see the company and if I’d heard of it before.
It's in the indictment: Tenet Media
The consensus (in most press) is that it's Tim Poole's company.
He's even made a statement about it. So it seems like a solid guess.

"secretly worms" is a pretty good way to describe Tucker Carlson, actually

It’s not a fucking secret. Russia has been fucking with America for like 70 years.
Secretly my ass. Anyone with a brain can see the same thing happening on Facebook, popular podcasts, and YouTube as what we see Lemmy from HB and ml.
Hot off the derp files.
No shit.
Fox News— Tucker Carlson, Shawn Hannity, Stepford Nazi edition wife Laura Ingraham and now Jesse Watters have been in the bag forever.
Rupert Murdoch has been licking Pootie’s sack and trying to bring down democracy.
This reads like a Baptist minister discovering a boyfriend his daughter's room, and then losing his shit like the boyfriend hadn't been invited in. "How could you dupe my sweet, innocent political party with your seductive money and influence!"
"worms it's way into"? Boy, you're late, that worming has been done ages ago. It laid its eggs, and they did hatch already.

In case you missed the little summary above: Benny Johnson, Tim Pool and Dave Rubin are the big ones.
And if you've never heard of them, your average Trump voter has.
to be clear, these are the just the end points of the money, lauren chen and her husband were the ones actually funneling the money into this corp and to these people. (and the two indicted russians obviously)
Her and her husband also knew about it being from russia, so they're likely getting fucked over by the fed soon for this one.
I would be surprised if there weren’t well placed Russian influence in most conservative media in the United States.
