That's not the only issue. The other is that his presence there legitimates the propaganda station, pnwmom Aug 2017 #3

Hartman being on RT makes one question his judgment brush Aug 2017 #57

I listen to his show burrowowl Aug 2017 #5

Keep your day job. No offense but your comedy act is lame as hell emulatorloo Aug 2017 #29

The news has changed though BainsBane Aug 2017 #8

amen! JCinNYC Aug 2017 #24

Hartmann's apparently left RT. Good for him. Being associated w Putin Today was bad for emulatorloo Aug 2017 #31

As do I. n/t phylny Aug 2017 #59

even worse is putting out misinformation JI7 Aug 2017 #7

Oh yeah BainsBane Aug 2017 #9

I still watch Tom. RDANGELO Aug 2017 #10

While I am not familiar with the content of Hartman's shows BainsBane Aug 2017 #12

I haven't watched him a lot lately. RDANGELO Aug 2017 #14

Hartmann avoids discussing those subjects PSPS Aug 2017 #17

it's really frustrating. i thought the admin said they would not allow it again JI7 Aug 2017 #18

Indeed BainsBane Aug 2017 #19

Surely it can't be so difficult BainsBane Aug 2017 #20

Just as Admin remove RW links, shouldnt they also remove all RT stuff ? OnDoutside Aug 2017 #21

+1000. stonecutter357 Aug 2017 #27

admin doesnt remove anything, juries do. mopinko Aug 2017 #42

My point still stands, if it is unacceptable to post RW stuff, then OnDoutside Aug 2017 #44

Yes! burrowowl Aug 2017 #74

Point to where I said not to watch Hartman. BainsBane Aug 2017 #33

I think it's just a pushback to the near-spamming by his fans lately. eShirl Aug 2017 #26

Dunno, maybe find a station where the boss hasn't murdered journalists, imprisoned LGTB, invaded emulatorloo Aug 2017 #30

You're asking folks to literally go through hundreds of hours of his show Arazi Aug 2017 #43

It's the number one news story since the election BainsBane Aug 2017 #45

It's a talk show radio program, not a news site lol Arazi Aug 2017 #49

It should be simple to provide links, shouldn't it? NastyRiffraff Aug 2017 #46

Better yet, show links where Hartmann promotes Russia... Trial_By_Fire Aug 2017 #47

Wow. The biggest story since the election BainsBane Aug 2017 #48

I am not the one accusing Hartmann of this. Trial_By_Fire Aug 2017 #52

I didn't accuse Hartman of anything BainsBane Aug 2017 #55

No, it's all about hate because Hartmann had 'Brunch with Bernie'... Trial_By_Fire Aug 2017 #56

LOL BainsBane Aug 2017 #58

Yup. Good point. Show us links where Thom promotes Russia Arazi Aug 2017 #51

I listen to Thom but don't subscribe to his podcasts so I can't post anything riderinthestorm Aug 2017 #54

You don't have to pay to link, or watch BainsBane Aug 2017 #61
