they report on stuff western media doesn't. I like it for checking out stuff normally not mentioned. they're absolutely fine with politically neutral topics and obviously lean in Russia's favor the same way MSM in the U.S lean towards America's favor.

I wouldn't trust any one source anon, just look at all of them and make up your mind on the subject. Even then we're only really getting a fraction of the story or event.

They are Biased in the same way other western media is.

Just towards Russia instead of America.

If you think that the western Media is corrupt and RT isnt you need to take a long look at yourself and your own biases.

It used to be very good, but after the Ukraine crisis they started shilling quite a bit (as in; USA bad, Russia good type of shilling).

It offers a different perspective that western media don't tread into. If you want diversity in your news then RT would fit in quite nicely.

This is probably the best answer.
My appreciation for RT, Russian, and alternative news sources, has risen quite dramatically since the ISIS beheadings in Iraq and Syria, as well as the war in Ukraine. Which, to me, are clearly Western creations. So, I simply want to broaden my views ahead of the end game.

Well, compare what the Russians did when they did their manifest destiny thing, to what the US did. The RF do come out smelling like roses then, don't they? You just don't like it because you want your home country to be the bestest. But there are other things the US are better at.
>>
My impression is that it's both.

Putin basically is happy about anything that divides Europe. If it causes European nations to become more unhappy with each other, or within, then they will print it.

This means that e.g. nationalist parties will get good exposure - because it frustrates the red keks. But if a gypsy gets molested by 15 nazis, they may also write about that, because it makes people unhappy.

But still, it's factual. Because they know that because of Russia's reputation they cannot risk getting caught in lies. If everyone hates you, they will examine everything you say for ways to catch you out. So they have to be factual.

I quite like it. Society should have its situations exposed, and the red kek desire for control and conformism should be confronted with reality.

>failing to watch the video before commenting on it

It's about the Spanish and Portuguese conquests, which they somehow manage to blame on the USA.

Russia's Westward expansion was hardly peaceful either...

The main difference is their natives were on the Eurasian continent and therefore had immunity to the diseases that wiped out most of the Americas.
>>
>>55249887
>ISIS is a Western creation
Meh, maybe yes, maybe no, maybe it's a creation of Mossad or the Saudis. I doubt we will ever know anyway.

But I hate how the US denigrates Russian media simply for having an opposing viewpoint.

Haven't really followed RT aside from their livefeeds back from the Hungarian border a few months ago, and the articles they made about that were pretty accurate to what was going on in the feed.
So, go figure.

ISIS is just shitskins doing EXACTLY what their holy book tells them to do.

No, no, we denigrate RT for literally being a government mouthpiece.

A gentleman's agreement is not the same thing as literally being a government mouthpiece. Obviously every nation's media is biased in favour of that nation, ad yes, it's government, unless they're leftarded faggots.

>>55249046
As with nearly every news outlet, they rarely lie but they are good at making the truth sound however they want it to.
>>
>>55250128
Have you ever wondered WHY they started doing what some version of their holy book, which is considered false by many other Muslims, tells them to do? Or how did they manage to become so powerful and still weren't destroyed by vastly superior Western armies that destroyed countries for less? You should.

Why? Because they're Muslims and can read. How did they become so powerful? Civil War in both Syria and Iraq created a void they were able to fill.

Uh... yes it is. It goes something like this:
>Government: So you agree to say what we want you to say?
>Media: Yes. And you will not question our shady business practices or our tax returns?
>Government: Yes.
>Media: Excellent. Where do we sign?
>Government: No, no paperwork. That way it can't ever be discovered.
>Media: Fine but if you screw us over, we have plenty to get you arrested. Remember that woman in (town)?
>Government: You bastard.... yes, I will remember. No tricks.
>Media: Good. A pleasure doing business with you, goyim.
>Government: Yes, good-day.

Best truth is when you see it with your own eyes, but if you doubt even that then nothing is safe to assume it's truth. RT does good on covering what others don't want to show, because of propaganda. If you want propaganda then there are plenty of choices in well-established news stations.
>>
>>55250731
It's bad. The new elites, usually less educated, less intelligent, less tied to the nation are dependent on the new government and will preach their propagnade. This is how cultural Marxism is born.
>>
>>55249046

Its the kremlin. But its great reporting at times.
>>
>>55249046
Propaganda isnt always a lie.
RT just loves to show what the western media doesnt want to show, therefor it counters it.
Western media moguls hate it, because they have a job of keeping their audience thinking in a certain way and RT is propaganda machine because they dont like it.
RT to the ones that hate it, is the same like CNN and others to ones that hated it before RT.
There does need to be a balance and RT is just that.
Watch the news on RT, watch it on aljazeera and watch it on CNN. Then you make up your own mind if you have a gram of brain soup.
But when i see the CNN, one of their news stories is a new application for apple devices and internet bullshit, while on RT i can see their own reporter eating an apple in Damascus, apple that came from an area controlled by ISIS or some other terrorist group.
I could have seen the separatists in ukraine patching up people hit by artillery, i could have seen dead moms, dads, grannies being carried into the hospital, but nobody else wanted to show it.
Then i could see the separatists firing the grads with Ruptly having an orgasm right then and there, during live fire.
RT tries. And also, RT isnt for Russians, it is for everyone else.

Lebanon is also religiously tolerant and overrepresent Christians in their government.

>>55249046
its a suitable source of information, it has an obvious bias but so does everything (especially private owned news corps)

if you want any sense of truth read multiple news sources and look for common facts
>>
Partly reliable, partly pure propaganda. The propaganda parts are as hilarious as those shitty British sensationalist newspapers.
>>
rt = putin
Known propaganda server mixing half truths, dank memes and straight pro-russian articles, no it is not really a good source for getting info
>>
>>55249046
>Is RT a suitable source of informations
Yes and no. What they report is in my opinion true. But: The choice of what is actually reported is nearly 100 % anti west. So depends what you want to hear, e.g. the spin.
>>
RT is pretty reliable, just a bunch of pro russia anti western propaganda being pushed, aswell as glorifying putin to the position of god
>>
>>55249046
All media is propaganda, and every journalist has an agenda, but that doesn't mean there is no truth in any media. You need to read from a variety of sources for a balanced opinion.

It's a mainstream news source. Which isn't "bad" as in immoral, or even "bad" as in poor content. It's "bad" in the sense it has a spin, even if not blatantly ideological. It's also "bad" in that it rarely goes in depth or provides follow up on stories, it lacks completeness.

If you set up a news feed I would include it along with China Daily, Al Jazeers, and BBC. Knowing "these things are happening there" will help you in your initial step to digging deep on the topics which concern you. Use it like an encyclopedia. A first step into the decent.
