Abigail Spanberger is the Democrat running for governor in Virginia. She was the leading candidate until about two weeks ago, when Republican Winsome Sears started catching up to her in the polls.
In an effort to boost her candidacy, Spanberger’s campaign has created a fake news website called the Commonwealth Courier, which shares positive news about Spanberger on social media sites.
The media has completely ignored this story, which should surprise no one.

VA Governor Candidate Spanberger Invents ‘News’ Site to Deceive Voters
Abigail Spanberger is the Democratic Party candidate for Governor in Virginia.
Automatically, that makes her suspect.
Pravda and the Democrats have promoted Spanberger as a moderate Democrat, whatever that means these days, although she tends to avoid discussing issues and is distancing herself from her radical voting record. There’s a lot of vague talk–something pretty common in politics, I admit–and lots of promises that utopia is just around the corner.
But to get an idea of what the real Spanberger is like, all you need to know can be summed up by one fact: her campaign has literally invented a fake news site to push the narrative that she is a different kind of Democrat, and that Republicans are the puppy and kitten killing party.
The “news” outlet is the Commonwealth Courier, which is a Facebook page that presents itself as a “Media/News” company. Only it isn’t a company at all. It is, in fact, an artificial creation of the Spanberger for Governor campaign.
The Commonwealth Courier doesn’t exist to get followers–it has very few–and I couldn’t even find a webpage for it. There is a “Commonwealth Couriers,” but they provide courier services, not fake news.

This is so dirty from @SpanbergerForVA … I thought there was no way they’d actually create a media outlet to front for their propaganda.

This seems like something Spanberger should be asked about by the media. Will any journalists do their job here?
