(62,325 posts)(their favorite propaganda word) CTS!!!! OMG, Thom Hartman, Amy Goodman!!! Thanks for a perfect example of the propaganda I was talking about.
It really pisses of the neocons that RT is so popular around the world, same way they hated Al Jazeera.
And the more they do stuff, like the subject of this OP, the more popular it becomes.
Same thing happened when the idiots tried to discredit the reporters on Al Jazeera. I remember donating to them in response along with many other Democratic Liberals.
RT is a great place to see all the Liberals, Chris Hedges, eg, that our Corporate Media is so frightened of, and we USED to be so outraged that there were no Liberal voices allowed on the Corporate owned media.
Of course they are not being 'repressed', but there sure is an effort to do so.
The reason it isn't working is because over the past ten years, the climate for the demonization of Real Journalists as we have watched them being persecuted, has changed dramatically.
I'm not worried about RT, just pointing out the propaganda we have become so accustomed to by now, and watching the hypocrisy of some on the Left who raged against it a few years ago.
Some great discussions on RT with people from all sides of the issues. And the Left does get to have a voice.
