China Global TV Network (CGTN), a Chinese state broadcaster, is running ads on Facebook that push Russia’s official narrative about its invasion of Ukraine, Axios reported Wednesday.
Facebook’s parent company, Meta, announced last week it would ban Russian state media ads from its service, but the move doesn’t stop countries like China from using their state channels to buy ads pushing Russian state’s messaging, Axios reported. Meta said in 2020 it would start to block state-controlled media outlets from buying advertising in the U.S., but they can still purchase advertising abroad.
