No, it's useless to read an article which starts with a blatant lie.

I hope you're referring to the common use of the word "hacked" instead of "influenced" as a lie, rather than the underlying fact that Russia influenced the US elections in a variety of ways, and continues to influence through various means?

Yes. It's the lie. "Hacking" and "influencing" are completely different things. The first implies that election system was compromised, and, in the mind of 99.999% of common population, that election results were directly tampered with. Nothing of the sort happened.
