You could also just use a text editor to write a fake news story, or pay $5 to a freelancer to write it if you're busy. I don't understand why people belive llms fundamentally change anything. Worst case scenario they make you slightly more efficient at your malfeasance, just like they do with legit tasks.
Not just slightly more but likely much more. You can automate the hell out of an automated propaganda bot in a way you could never do with a smoke filled room of $5/day workers.
