What's going to happen?

Only propaganda pictures of Putin? Reporters won't be allowed to travel with Putin's wife? Reporters forced to give Putin's press guy questions ahead of time? I give up - how bad will it be?

Or maybe their version of Nightline won't cover the invasion for over a hundred days...

He got the idea from Obama's example to begin with.

I make Putin buy the Station and pay me well, but I'll bend over for Obama for free!

When did Russia pay violent firebomb throwers to overthrow the elected government of Ukraine and install its own coup government? Oh, it was the Obama/EU/Soros that did that. So how can Russia control the media inside Ukraine? What evidence does this “new article” present to backup such a claim.

Ok, I guess Russia gets a pass, then. Control of media by the state is just fine. You heard it here first.

Most countries have press restrictions....What are we going to do about it?

Let’s fix our own messes first.

I simply think it’s a silly argument to make, on a website that was created in part to document bias in the media, that bias in the media gets a pass.

Putin is using communist/socialist tactics ro run a capitalist war. Control over the distibution of oil and natural gas. Foreign naval and air bases in Cuba, Venezuela,Mediteranean, asia, to threaten those supply lines. Of US gas and oil to their markets in Europe and Asia. Putin even has “stoups” like Ron Paul working for him spreading propagada working the imperialist american or the isolationist angle posting his talking points on these pages.

All those over the top public displays of masculinity from Putin are a sure sign of a self loathing homo. You see that type of sissy prancing in all the gay day parades.
