Agencies, diplomats, Russian politicians, historians and journalists, to trace how Putin went from low-ranking KGB agent, to long-serving president of a newly assertive Russia, with the ability to wage cyber-war in the U.S. and across the globe.
With in-depth reporting from Moscow and Washington, D.C., the documentary from filmmaker Michael Kirk (The Choice 2016, Bannon’s War) .......explores why Putin has sought to sow distrust, in America’s democracy.
Part one of Putin’s Revenge, is a portrait of what makes the Russian leader, tick, and the events that shaped his belief, that the U.S. has sought to undermine Russia, dating back to the fall of the Soviet Union.

And, how fake news picked up by Russian propaganda websites, eventually found their way, into mainstream American news broadcasts.
