[Burnt Reynolds 5,058]

Yet another massive Trump era conspiracy peddled by the media and left falls apart:

A three-year investigation by U.K. Information Commissioner Elizabeth Denham has concluded that digital advertising firm Cambridge Analytica did not influence the country’s 2016 vote to leave the European Union.

In 2018, reports surfaced that Cambridge Analytica gained access to data on Facebook users without their consent, which the firm then utilized to target certain them with pro-Brexit ads. The company was also accused of collaborating with Russia to increase support among Britons for leaving the E.U.

“I identified no significant breaches of the privacy and electronic marketing regulations and data protection legislation that met the threshold for formal regulatory action,” Delham wrote in her findings. “We did not find any additional evidence of Russian involvement in our analysis of material contained in the [Cambridge Analytica] servers we obtained.”

Glenn has been a great example (even if he's bitter about the reality of things as I'm sure most honest people are) that there are remaining left wing journalists with integrity. He makes money on his journalistic skill but also lost a lot holding people accountable that were largely on his side.
