Post, March 3, 2014. http://www.kyivpost.com/content/ukraine/billionaire-kolomoisky-takes-over-in-dnipropetrovskoblast-criticizing-putin-and-yanukovych-338261.html. One commenter on this article who goes by the handle Rearose
Aguilar wrote, “ODESSA KILLING-HE WAS INVOLVED?” The comment insinuates that Kolomoisky was somehow
responsible for the Odessa violence, which made me wonder if this commenter was part of some larger disinformation
campaign. When I clicked on the commenter’s handle I was directed to the Rearose Aguilar Facebok page. On the
Facebook page there are numerous references to Vladimir Putin, Mother Russia, and other pro-Russian content. This
doesn’t necessarily mean Aguilar is a paid Russian internet troll, but the fact that the Kyiv Post shows this person as a
top commenter makes me suspicious.
