Really? I though RT was part of Russia's foreign propaganda effort, so I wouldn't expect it to have much effect on domestic news consumption. IIRC, actually Russians get their news from domestic outlets like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russia-1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russia-1 and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_One_Russia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_One_Russia.
This is good news, but mainly because it interferes with Russia's foreign propaganda operations around this attack.
- kergonath 5y agoI don’t think the OP the as saying that the Russian soldiers were lost because RT was taken down. Rather that they were lost, on top of everything else that is happening currently. It is clear that RT is propaganda for foreign consumption, not domestic.
