Radio Free Europe was for 10 years almost the only way to know what's really going on in my country.
I'm forever grateful to them and it horrifies me that their mission ultimately has failed.
- pphysch 1y ago"Russia Today was for 10 years almost the only way to know what's really going on in my country". I'm only being half-sarcastic. RT will cover factual issues about Western countries that the state-endorsed media won't. But they're still disinformation outlets that should be consumed with a massive grain of salt, just like RFE and RFA.
- bojan 1y agoThat's a ridiculous take. Yes, Russian propaganda works best when they are based on a grain of truth, and it often is. However, it is just that - a propaganda machine serving a dictator.
