When I read the news (and I mostly don't try to) I get it from Russia Today. I know they're probably not 100% objective, but so is any news source.
For a person living in Russia, I cringe every time I read news from western media about our country and our people. It's a collection of blatant lies targeted at people who don't know what is Russia, where is Russia, how Russia lives.
E.g. how would any westerner fact check any news source like this without being able to read Russian? Rely on opinions of CIA-ceritified translators?
- matkoniecz 6y agoRussia Today treated as a reliable source about political opponents of Putin? Seriously?
- anticodon 6y agoWhat else source do you suggest. Mind you, as living in Russia I don't trust western media, because things they say about Russia is 90% lie which is evident to any Russian that possess some English knowledge and can fact check what they're telling about Russia.
- querez 6y agowhat about non-western news such as Al Jazeera, do you trust those? Or what about Asian news? E.g., what's your opinion on this: https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2021/4/7/what-do-russians-really-think-of-putin-and-navalny https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2021/4/7/what-do-russians... ?

Seriously! They don't dominate the world. There's a good part of Europe watching that do know Russian as well. Don't live on that dream.
