The fake authors published articles in outlets including the progressive U.S. news site Daily Kos and the U.K.-based Middle East Monitor. According to NBC News , the Middle East Monitor published at least 21 articles by four fake authors.

The Daily Kos wrote in response to NPR's request for comment that its community section, where one of the fake personas posted, is separate from staff reports. Anyone can sign up to post in the community section and posts are "not subject to review by Daily Kos staff prior to publication," according to a disclaimer on the site. The community section does have rules for posting, including prohibiting "Pretending to be someone you're not." The posts by the persona are still up.
