Who are Russia's Night Wolves?
The Night Wolves are a Kremlin-linked, far-right Russian motorcycle club that has served as a paramilitary proxy and propaganda tool for the Russian state in Europe where they have been sanctioned. They are also operating in Australia, though they have not been outlawed here. But a disinformation expert says they are only one aspect of Russia’s propaganda campaign and their determination to sew discontent in the West. Olga Boichak is a media sociologist who explores how communities can build resilience when digital technologies are weaponised. And she's been tracking Russia's activities in Australia. Guest: Dr Olga Boichak, Senior Lecturer in Digital Cultures, University of Sydney. Producer: Catherine Zengerer
