Twitter labels tweets from Russian state media outlets

"Today, we are adding labels to Tweets that share links to Russian state-affiliated media websites and are taking steps to significantly reduce the circulation of this content on Twitter," Yoel Roth, the company's head for site integrity tweeted.

Roth said that the micro-blogging site has seen more than 45,000 tweets a day sharing links to Russian state-affiliated media outlets.
