The Duran is known for its Russian connections and pro-Russia bias.
See this from a Chuck Norris post:
And for anyone who’s interested in who /what The Duran is here you go.
History
Founded in 2016, The Duran is a strongly right leaning news and opinion website with ties to Russian state media. Based in Cyprus, the editor of the website is Alexander Mercouris, who in 2012 was disbarred as an attorney in London. According to the Telegraph, he then went on to become a “pro-Russian commentator on world affairs for Russian TV news outlets and websites.”
The Duran’s director is Peter Lavelle, who is host of RT’s (Russian state news outlet) political debate program CrossTalk.
In 2018, the right leaning Weekly Standard accused The Duran of peddling Russian “Fake News.”
The website does not provide an about page, mission statement, funding or obvious ownership information.
Funded by / Ownership
The Duran is owned by the Cyprus based DRN Media PLC. Moscow native Alex Christoforou is the President and Chairman of DRN Media PLC. Funding for The Duran comes from Paypal and Patreon donations, as well as advertising.
Analysis / Bias
When covering the USA, the Duran demonstrates a conservative bias with frequent articles denigrating the left such as this: Rudy Giuliani DESTROYS Hillary Clinton, “America’s Number One Crime Family” (Video) and this story promoting a conspiracy theory, NXIVM Sex-Cult Prosecutors Have Evidence Of Illegal Clinton Campaign Contributions For “Political Influence”. This latter story is copied and pasted from the right wing conspiracy website Zerohedge.
In general, The Duran routinely publishes pro-Russian propaganda and promotes right wing conspiracies through the use of poorly sourced, plagiarized news articles.
If you're talking about celebrity Chuck Norris, just remember that he's a globalist Bushie. Stay out da Bushes.
Any source that uses loaded language to describe their ideological enemies is not a source at all.
Ukraine must seek peace talks to have any hope of revival
The West should stop gloating over Russian losses and focus on a deal
