Soros-Funded Fake News Op Courier Newsroom ‘Weaponizing TikTok’ to Swing Midterms to Dems
1st October 2026
A leftist fake news outfit founded by Democratic activist Tara McGowan and funded by George Soros is launching a major Big Tech scheme to dominate the political information sphere ahead of the midterm elections.
Surprisingly, the damning news was broken by none other than NewsGuard, another notorious media outfit that MRC has exposed for using its ratings system as a cudgel to silence right-leaning media. Courier Newsroom, which has been fueled with at least $20 million between 2021 and 2023 alone by Soros, is making a “major bet” on weaponizing TikTok in order to sway votes.
Specifically, NewsGuard wrote that “Across 21 TikTok accounts — one for each state that Courier covers, plus a nationally focused account — Courier has generated an audience of 4.3 million followers and has collectively received 665.5 million likes on its videos.” Courier became infamous for spreading mass amounts of false information in past elections to manipulate voters.
