(37,369 posts)That there's some fine propaganda. As soon as the music started I wanted to run out into the garden and plant some Dear Leader potatoes (did you know potatoes were invented by Dear Leader's Dear Grandfather?).
There you go again, RT is biased to be sure but your trying to portray them as state-sponsored propaganda is the same "ohh scary Russia" line that anyone who doesn't like that they have to say throws out.
I suppose this comment will get flagged down again and hidden since DU doesn't seem to care for free speech.

(68,868 posts)They are accurately--indisputably so--describing RT as state-sponsored propaganda.
It is owned, operated, managed, by the Russian government, for the sole, exclusive benefit of the Russian government.
It is the Russian government.
DU has greater freedom of speech than Russia does.

(12,697 posts)The network asserts that RT offers a Russian perspective on global events. However critics have accused it of being a propaganda outlet for the Russian government. In 2013 President Putin admitted Certainly the channel is funded by the government, so it cannot help but reflect the Russian governments official position but stressed we never intended this channel, RT, as any kind of apologetics for the Russian political line. sounds like fox.

Oh - I did not know that - I believed it to be from the song group AHA - who by the way was Norwegian - and who was kind of one of the first "super-stars" coming out from norway in the early 1980s - and who had some sauces even on the international scene - something that was rather impressive coming from Norway I mean...
But then again - DKPR have invented most of what the world have stolen for its own means I understand - and Kim Jong Il was also a crack shot golf player back in the days I understand.... 18 holes in one at an 18 hollers - rather impressive I would say :p
