I have yet to see a single article on RT saying that maybe the war in Ukraine isn't a good thing and Russia should leave.
> MintPress hiring ex-RT -> it's propaganda arm
RT just serves as an extension for the Russian intelligence services as a propaganda arm, so if you have a problem with ex spooks working at bellingcat you should have a problem with ex-RT working at MintPress.
- postsantum 4y agoThe original question was about how various "investigative bodies" get their information. My problem with them is that they are marketing themselves as private citizens using widely available data while it's often not true. RT is transparent about its funding and sources at least Bellingcat's investigation on Navalny's poisoning was entertaining as hell and I enjoyed it a lot, and I am not accusing them on lying in their reports. However they funded by National Endowment for Democracy which is CIA in disguise https://thegrayzone.com/2021/02/20/reuters-bbc-uk-foreign-office-russian-media/ https://thegrayzone.com/2021/02/20/reuters-bbc-uk-foreign-of...
