Of course RT is slanted, but American media are at least as slanted and way more rude, by Karl Denninger.

RT is Russia Today, the news service run by Russia, just as the BBC is run by Britain, ABC by Australia, and Voice of America by the USA.

The Democrats have been complaining about all things Russian in their election loss. The presence of RT is one of their excuses for losing to that horrible unelectable man. (See the video of  Hillary demanding “why aren’t I fifty points ahead?”. Classic.)

I find the entirety of the reporting on “RT” to be highly-amusing. Of course RT has ties to Russian interests. Duh! For the record I’ve appeared on RT in their Washington DC studio and it was certainly not lost on me who probably was funding them in some form or fashion.  I means, RT does stand for “Russia Today.” Hello Captain Obvious.

Do they slant their coverage? Yes. All media does. One of the things I like about RT, however, is that unlike nearly all American media they’ll let you finish your sentence which means when you detect them trying to slant a point you’re making you can effectively respond and get the other half of your sentence out on the air.

That almost-never happens on an “American” media channel.  As soon as you try to counter their obvious slant, whatever it may be you, get shouted down, shouted over or they simply cut away from you entirely.

Yep, sure do. The western media just will not let an opposing point of view be aired. Our media are partisan players, not reporters.
