Its not propaganda if the Russians do it!
RT will get even more shrill because Putin has painted himself into a corner with all this astroturfed mayhem. He doesn’t have the support of the vast majority of locals in E. Ukraine.
Given a choice, few people want to be ruled by kidnappers and murders. Al Qaeda in Ukraine is committing one own goal after another. Now they apparently kidnapped some Germans. Brilliant.
I’m not sure RT will become more “shrill.” It appears to be much more polished than during the Russian invasion of Georgia, when it was assuring us that the Georgians were just Muslims.
