I prefer to ignore things that are insubstantial.

A claim by npr that "Russian Trolls" are doing one thing or another doesn't matter unless it can be shown (a) they are government actors, and (b) they in some way are attempting to influence the outcome of the election, and (c) stand at least some chance of doing so.

I don't see the difference between RT.com and Al Jazeera, or for that matter, between RT.com and MSNBC. It is a news outlet and while it may lie it may not lie as much as MSNBC or CNN.

ZeroHedge, I don't see except when someone posts an article on SI.

The reality is the lies and misrepresentations of the American media are a far bigger problem than all these things you're talking about combined.

Now, if there were some evidence the Russian government was making an effort to install the candidate of its choice, that would be different. But no one has presented such evidence to date. Actual, factual, provable, hard evidence. Sans redaction.
