RT - Russia Today

RT actually post stories with back up evidence that let the viewer decide if True or False, unlike the sensationalist gossip spewed out by the American corporate media. Pharmaceutical companies selling dangerous drugs and pro war, pro corporate, corrupt U.S. Politicians, ignoring voter's demands while catering to their wealthy financial backers are exposed to the Public every week. The brutal military occupation of Palestine as well as the never ending unwinnable American foreign wars are also highlighted. These topics are not covered by the U.S. mainstream media for fear of offending their advertisers and their access to government officials.

RT has a particularly deceptive way of ghosting its posters. They put posters into an "Unreliable" mode which auto blocks their posts and makes them wait for individual review. Yet they ask you to get around the censorship on them by various means. They are just as bad as the rest!

Some articles from external authors are good, but RT own production is very poor. Also the website is run by children, or people who are mentally children and Russian government is wasting money on this "journalism". If you are looking for news from Russia, stay away and find other sources.

Saying about mass graves, Ukraine and Russia admit both messed up on the cease fire. No just Russia. Saying Ukraine nationals refusing the let people leave to country to go to Russia. Am sure no Ukrainian wants to be a part of Russia. Russia is lying why you think blocked Facebook and other news feeds. Wake up and take your country back from a idiot!

Although biased, like every other news site, it is by far the best news source and makes an effort to prove its claims and if it cannot prove them, it also is honest about not being able to verify them, unlike almost every other source of news. For this reason, its comments section is flooded with anti-Russian trolls, many of which seem to sit on RT comments all day, every day, giving away that they do if for a job. Lately the site has been attacked by hackers constantly and plagued by disinformation trolls in the comments due to the Ukraine conflict. The bias at RT comes in the form of what the articles are about, not how the information in them is presented. They don't focus much on what bad things are happening in Russia for example, but mostly on what bad things happen to Russia or another country, if a Western Nation is responsible. I have no problem with this, because it is a fact that most problems around the world are indeed caused by Western Nations. This is a fact that many cannot admit, so they hate RT.

It used to be a good way to get news that made the west look bad, but deteriorated badly. Almost all free media in Russia in gone, RT is just trumpeting the Kremlins bizarre reasoning and lies and almost all free media is gone, up to 15 years in prison for telling the truth will mean there's literally no more opposition unless all the Russians decide they don't like putin anymore, who's committing war crimes with his ukraine invasion, killing thousands Ukrainian and Russians citizens and his own soldiers, but RT wont tell that to the russian people, they are trumpets and betray their own people.

I source my news from many different agencies and find RT to be the most real and diverse outlet on freeview TV.
It is not, as some would have you believe, Kremlin propaganda. Indeed many programs and stories have been critical of Russia.
I find it to be the news that most makes sense and ties in with more news of unconnected agencies than any other.
I have difficulty finding any examples of propaganda or dishonesty unlike other more respected outlets such as the BBC.

Why is there so much coverage in Gaza and little about Hamas firing 300 rockets a day into Israel? A rocket costs $800 - why isn't anyone reporting about the money? Gaza has 1.8 Million people, with approx. 1500 rockets being fired at Israel - where is the money coming from? Where is all the aid money going for the Palestinians? Why is Hamas spending the money on rockets and not their people and why are the Palestinians tolerating it? Why does Hamas do this to their people? And why isn't it being reported?

Russia today is a slap across the US's face (which was already in grave danger). The Russias are simply ruthless. They take on the Americans on the same game that had led to their defeat in 1991, but this time they've learned the ropes. And how: RT is rocking the media boat as professionally and impeccably as their Yankee counterparts, adding a touch of their icy flare.

So everything comes to the surface, all the information from all the forbidden nooks of American-dominated medias in the US. What was alternative, with RT appears the norm - and a more 'sober' normality, as many have started to realize.

IIf the Americans pride themselves on being "cool", RT retaliates in kind, with a sober style. Political correctness flies out of the window. It's merciless. It's a glorious show in the arena, and a part of the audience have chucked the emperor into the fight. They didn't expect it: "you... do this to US? There will be blood!"

If this was a game of poker, RT would look like the guy with the stone-cold nuts who keeps a cocky attitude, which induces his opponents to try and bully him off the pot. Explosive situations, that also can end with a disastrous all-in.

The American hysteria over a network that is "lying" is, at least, a competent opinion. RT plays this card to the audience, and with splendid nonchalance, in the backdrop of a relaxed atmosphere that pervades network's anchormen, the reporters, the hosts, and even the craziest guests. Sheer FUN throughout.

RT offers a far more balanced and insightful brand of news than mainstream media. Mainstream media sources all sing from the same script (pro war, anti Russia etc etc) and its not an accident when you get so many media outlets all taking the same angle on events when its possible to have a different opinion (where were the people saying launching missles at Syria weren't a good idea, surely they exist but not allowed to be aired on MSM. If you must watch Mainstream Media you would do well to balance it with a dose of RT to compensate for the bias that clearly exists on the main networks.
