a ridiculous conspiracy theory

BTW- a search for Russian TV tells me that this is NOT a major TV network

[GeronL]

pro-Kremlin channel that is hardly a “major TV channel”, it was just started in Sept 2013

One of the key shareholders in this channel is a good friend of Putin and the guy who launched it is very pro-Kremlin. Calls Putin the father of the nation.

[GeronL]

Since when has Russian pro-Kremlin media outlets cared about the truth?

[dfwgator]

Then again when has our media?

[Krosan]

This network was established very recently and came to prominence for pushing Kremlin line in covering event in Ukraine. Part of Putin’s new and improved propaganda scheme. It has quickly became very prominent in areas where Kremlin wants hard hitting direct media misinformation. It doesn’t seem to have any human interest programs - only propaganda. No TV-personalities with ego also, so they are sure to do what they are told.

“So if this story is taken as true, what purpose would such an action serve?”

I’m not saying it’s true, my point was, most of us probably feel, just as an example, that the cia has engaged in unsavory actions. and just as many of us feel those actions were probably necessary.
so, we seem to accept covert actions, but when something is overt, like 9/11 or hedbo, we get hysterical if someones suggest our involvement.
and by the way, that’s not even mentioning the fact that under the Obama administration, how many atrocities did he authorize?

Okay,
Just needed to clarify the intended meaning of your post.

[D-fendr]

Didn’t say this was a “major tv channel.” Said control of media is “major part of his tactics.”

I’m sure some of our crackpot Putinistas will be tuning into Lifenews for all their latest marching orders.

[elhombrelibre]

Unfortunately, Putin’s got a fan club on FreeRepublic. It’s a fact. They’re quite persistent, devoted, churlish, and irrational. In short, they’re the perfect boob bait for Putin’s ideology. Lord Acton said, “Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.” These dolts believe Putin is the exception, his time in the KGB was no different than being in the Boy Scouts, and real conservatives, these putinistas think, don’t appreciate the rule of law as much as the rule of a putative opportunistic “Christian,” like Putin.

Speaking of unsavory, how about your leader Putin. http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2013/05/putin_condemned.html
