I think Thom Hartmann became associated with Russia when Russia was going through Glasnost, or freedom, after Gorbachev left office. He was supportive of Russian democratic reform, which we all hoped would take place in Russia. Thom Hartmann left RT after Putin regained power for himself and the oligarchs in Russia. I do not think he is a Russian sympathizer. He always has a good in depth radio program relating to political history that we all need to remember in this country. He recalls things like Reganomics and Newt Gingrich's Contract on America which we need to remember so America doesn't repeat it's trickle down economic errors forever. I like his show and always learn something from it.
