“Russian TV!!!?”

Why not? You know the US media is not the unbiased neutral media it claims to be and yet would you only take information from those sources?

No of course not, if you want to get an accurate picture of what’s going on you need to have as many sources as possible.

You need to follow the BBC, the US media AND the Russians and Al Jazeera, and you can sift out the truth.

If you are claiming that RT is faking its video footage well prove that, otherwise you need to accept that maybe, just maybe, you aren’t getting the full picture from CNN, because as we know they would never lie to you, would they?

RT is an obvious propaganda organ of the Russian state but they don’t fake footage, they will ignore news that is inconvenient to Putin and highlight news that boosts him or denigrates his opponents but they rarely flat-out lie or fake footage.

If you only listen to the news you want to hear and refuse to listen to facts that don’t accord with how you want the world to appear then you are going to be very easily misled.

I watch RT sometimes. You see footage and hear about stories you just don’t hear about in the western media. Of course they have an agenda, and you have to take that into account. But then that’s true of America’s left stream media too. Or conservative media for that matter. Doesn’t mean you can’t learn anything from it, or that there’s nothing true in what they are saying. You have to be smart enough to put it in perspective.
