WTF is RT News? Are you missing an E or am I missing some culture?

R T News really !!! It has occasional accuracy to disguise its remorseless propaganda, its utter crap and needs to be removed , less than happy its on my channels and I would think advertisers must be a wee bit confused as the media bureaus place their ads . Al jazeria is a better source of an opposing view point with credible journalism

I tend to watch all news channels, (sad I know), including RT.
RT news is probably Kremlin propaganda, but guess what, every news station has an agenda that they're trying to push. They're either government sponsored or big business sponsored. The cold hard truth is no single news source can be trusted 100%. IMHO we either need all these news channels or none of them. One needs to watch how each channel covers the stories that matter to us so we can at least get alternative view points.
If news channels start getting banned then I want to know who's banning them and why.

Pravda and Izvestia were two Soviet era newspapers.They still exist.In English, one meant The Truth and the other meant The News.
Hence it used to be said ,there's no truth in The News and no news in The Truth.

Watching a variety of channels is good policy to have. It's generally a bad idea to get your news from one source.
It's watching with a critical eye that is important.
And you're correct there is a lot of Kremlin propaganda on RT, Moscow openly admits that it is state controlled.
The problem for Washington is that RT keep pulling them on their lies.
I read somewhere recently that researchers have estimated between 80-95% of the wider population are sheeple.
Not sure how that ties in with my poll.

Totally agree with wide range of sources for news and that news is at a minimum finessed or more .In UK all know that the Mirror=Labour Telegraph = Tory and so on . However with RT it is a total state vehicle from a man with no compulsion in assassination. I mean would we take anything from Turkey in support of the newest Dictator there ?or North Korea?Watching a variety of channels is good policy to have.

I agree there is manipulation of news but some of it is total subversion. Perhaps you need to worry more about Social Media, Cambridge analytics and dumbing down of intellect and critical appraisal of information by the public . RT is dedicated arm of Russian v aggressive PR as seen in Latvia recently . I mean the ads now identified by Facebook Twitter are interesting as is the fake news being generated in the east . The entire Pizza gate thing driven by Russia including RT . So no I do agree with them broadcasting here we have already seen even here the shall we say less informed(gullible) taken in hook line and sinker by the trump crap fake news generated by russia.
