I don't consider it fake news. It's just another of a thousand pieces where everyone in Trump's orbit has abnormal connections to Russia. There are thousands of large multi-national law firms. Most have never won an award as Russian Law Firm of the Year.
All these connections to Russia are way above any reasonable expectation just from normal people doing normal things in a global marketplace. The frequency of Russian ties are magnitudes more common and this is certainly just another one of those things. This particular issue indicates the Law Firm has strong resources and connections in Russia. If this were the only Russian connection for trump, his circle or campaign it would mean nothing. If it is the one thousandth connection to Russia it is of some import.
