Why is this in the top of Hacker News? I live in Russia, this may be a big concern for me, but even in Russia it's not the top news of the day, this media, which was dissolved, it always was pro-government, the funding came from state etc. It's easier to say that it just was renamed and will now make more propaganda than real news. But how is this local political news about one media from one single country is something that is of any interest for Hacker News?

- amima 13y agoThere are not much political news of this type about USA on Hacker News (if this is not something about Snowden, which has direct influence on IT). Do not overestimate this media event, it's nothing but another Russia Today, which already exists. And this event is definitely has nothing to do with fascism, because this media already was government media in the first place.
