stereolab Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Just finishing reading this at the moment about how the Russian government treats journalists who criticise them http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mafia-State-reporter-became-brutal/dp/0852652496/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1357672310&sr=8-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magilla Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Also BBC is state sponsored , even tho thy wont admit ! Odd then that they should make a big campaign around the slogan "because of the unique way the BBC is funded". What did you think they meant by that?

donkey Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Aljazeera and RT are just brilliant. Aljazeera is comparitively good, but RT is just terrible. It drones on dogmatically about the evils of the west while not venturing a word of criticism against fascist gits like Putin and Assad, for example. RT may give their tacit approval to certain mass murderers, but hey, when it comes to Wikileaks or the Occupy Movement, they present themselves as bulwarks of liberty and freedom of speech What you see on RT is idiotic activists from the west being manipulated by the Russian propaganda machine. That propaganda machine which is an integral part of an apparatus of oppression against - mostly - the Russian people. So the westerners who use RT to voice their oppositon to corruption and oppression in the west, are supporting corruption and oppression in the east, which makes them either cynical hypocrites or brainless dicks with no clue of what is going on.

paul12345678 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I must say I have not seen enough of RT to comment but I have noticed one thing in reading this thread. When people make a valid point for a debate in favour of Rt they get a response like "You really are dumb, what a Muppet or do try thinking" with out offering a valid answer. Now forgive me but when I read or hear anything in the media or other wise I gather all the information from several angles then make up my own mind. Unfortunately I believe that If people only get the views of the likes of Fox, BBC and sky news then you may be only getting the points they want you to know instead of looking at different perspectives and drawing your own conclusion.
