Oh, what a surprise. Russia Today praises Jill Stein and trashes Hillary Clinton.

Rule No. 1 for reading Russia Today: Never ever assume that they tell you the whole story.

https://www.rt.com/usa/356917-clinton-stein-louisiana-flooding/

Both Hillary Clinton and President Barack Obama have been criticized for not visiting victims in Louisiana.

What RT doesn't mention: Criticized by whom?

Donald Trump and running mate Mike Pence arrived in Baton Rouge on Friday in a visit that some Democrats called a photo opportunity.

What RT doesn't mention: The people of Louisiana also called it a photo-op.

The medical doctor voiced her concerns for rising sea levels in the wake of the extreme weather experienced in the US, and pointed to the fact that under Obama, “greenhouse gases have not just been rising, but the rate of rising has been accelerating,” and called for a “climate state of emergency.”

What RT doesn't mention: What Clinton and the Republicans are thinking about climate-change.




And as usual, >50% of the article is Tweets.
