Serious question, has your local/regional/national news reported on anything like Russian interference in this matter, specifically, that a Russian fake news story was the cause for all this?

U.S. officials believe that Russian hackers planted a fake news story in Qatar's state news agency, contributing to tensions among key U.S. allies in the Gulf, CNN reported Tuesday, citing U.S. officials.

The FBI sent investigators to Doha recently to aid the Qatari government in probing the reported incident, officials told CNN.

U.S. officials said that intelligence indicated Russian hackers were behind the intrusion that Qatar's government reported two weeks ago, according to the network.


This is still kinda breaking news (everything takes foooorever nowadays with the current state of the news cycle), and I can't get enough consensus on this in my research to form a valid opinion.

Is this being discussed in your news, and how, if you care to elaborate? Thank you in advance for your time.
