The Epoch Times
The Epoch Media Group spent $11 million on Facebook ads in 2019, including, over a six-month period in 2019, more than $1.5 million on about 11,000 pro-Trump Facebook advertisements purchased by "The Epoch Times". According to publicly-available Facebook ad data reported on by NBC News, the"Epoch Times" spent more on pro-Trump ads than any other group except the Trump campaign itself. Political ad spending on Facebook in April 2019 through an account called "Coverage of the Trump Presidency by The Epoch Times" exceeded any politician's spending except Trump and Democrat Joe Biden. Journalist Judd Legum wrote in May 2019 that "The Epoch Times" ads were "boosting Donald Trump and floating conspiracy theories about Joe Biden."
