(23,340 posts)You have not contradicted a single specific detail in this story because you can't.You don't know what you are talking about on this at all. You simply want to stick your head in the sand.
all you do is shoot the messenger, because you really don't know RT.
The essence of the story you haven't read is that the message on RT is controlled by the top administration of Russians at Rt to reflect the Putin line. You refuse to discuss this at all, because you know you will appear a fool. The expose shows what policies are behind the falsification of "news" at RT.
The major media didn't lie our way into Iraq. I was completely opposed to our going into that war based on what I read in the major media. Millions of others were, too. Your bullshit line about the corporatist conspiracy is just that, bullshit.
We were given a gift subscription to the Wall Street Journal. I thought it a conservative mouthpiece, which it is on the editorial pages. They won my heart on the news side, though, when they did an in-depth multi-page piece that completely ripped apart the Bush invasion of Iraq. This was about 2004 or so. Talk about main-stream media.
