Totally agree.
<rant> My personal opinion is that RT is simply jazzy anti-American propaganda sold by Putin to the english speaking world. I do not think they are a legitimate news source. For a backup of my propaganda claim, please compare their coverage of the Occupy movement with Russian protests against Putin. </rant>
- GigabyteCoin 15y agoThank you. I fully agree. RT is sponsored completely (they have next to no advertising) by the Government of the Russian Federation. I have a really tough time believing anything they say, too. I turned it on the other night because my conspiracy theorist loving buddy enjoys their programming apparently, and everything was "USA is bad because of this"... "USA doesn't do that right"... I mentioned that you shouldn't believe everything the russian goverment says and said "buddy" literally flipped out. He accused me of attacking his character and intelligence. I'm half worried he has been brainwashed by that channel. He is usually a pretty easy going guy.
- gyardley 15y agoGood lord, yes - it's the Russian government's state organ. Their appalling Syria coverage is also worth taking a look at. http://www.tabletmag.com/jewish-news-and-politics/90971/disinformation/ http://www.tabletmag.com/jewish-news-and-politics/90971/disi...
