I already stated they have a pro-russian bias, however, their war reporting has been spot on over the Syrian War which was their claim to fame. This "Fact Check" in and of itself seems in many cases to be politically driven, as it was written by an author that did not accurately state her connections to the British Intelligence establishment [1] [2] [3] > In response to one of my parliamentary questions on December 3, Foreign Office Minister Alan Duncan said: “The Institute for Statecraft is an independent Scottish charitable body whose work seeks to improve governance and enhance national security. They launched the Integrity Initiative in 2015 to defend democracy against disinformation.” > The problem is that this “charitable body” hasn’t confined itself to that and has strayed into smearing Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party. > These tactics resemble those deployed by the CIA in Operation Mockingbird that was launched at the height of the cold war in the early 1950s. Its aims included using the mainstream news media as a propaganda tool. > They manipulated the news agenda by recruiting leading journalists to write stories with the express purpose of influencing public opinion in a particular way. > Now it seems the British Establishment have dusted off the CIA’s old playbook and is intent on giving it another outing on this side of the Atlantic. > Interestingly the mainstream media has been rather tardy in its coverage of the revelations contained in the hacked documents. > I would have thought an international network of politicians, journalists, academics, researchers and military officers associated with this British-based project might have merited more than a passing mention on the BBC. > But the fact that this charity has gone well beyond “defending democracy against disinformation” and is itself indulging in disinformation against the Labour Party and its leader seemingly isn’t newsworthy to mainstream media editors. [4] Considering her connections to the British Intelligence establishment, and the Institute for Statecraft's political smearing of left-wing political figures from the Labour party such as Jeremy Corbyn, I don't know that I would use her as a source for credibility, or lack thereof. We do know SouthFront is Pro-Russian, and as I previously stated.
