The
Twitter account of the pro-opposition blog “In Venezuela,”
appears to be run from Toronto, Canada and the field news source is
run by a Bellingcat member, Giancarlo Fiorella. The
“open-intelligence investigation network” Bellingcat is
infamous for its biased reporting and forwarding the mainstream media
narrative. Its connections to the Institute of Statecraft and
its pet project the Integrity Initiative are also not a
secret.

Some
[Twitter] users suggested that the Venezuela Opposition field news
account is similar to many of “patriotic Syrian accounts” based
in Tel’Aviv, Israel.
[...]
It
should be reminded Bellingcat published numerous pieces
claiming that non-Western backed governments were gassing protesters
and using over-the-top violence against them. So, reports claiming
that protesters are being targeted by live rounds could possibly
follow shortly.
It
wouldn’t be surprising if the Integrity Initiative launched
an operation to combat “Russian disinformation” in Venezuela, and
the Institute for Statecraft sent some representatives to
organize some open lectures on fighting “fake news.” Or rather,
how to spread them and propagate the MSM narrative and cause even
further hysteria.
