"RT, formerly Russia Today, is a Russian state-controlled international news television network funded by the Russian government."

Should one really rely on state propaganda (Russia) to forge an opinion related to the geopolitical situation of the state (Ukraine) it is in war against? Let's just ban rt.com posts from this community.

All media is state controlled. Including the precious BBC and Reuters etc.

Unless you can prove there is false information in this article it will stay up. Not sure why you're so worried about a -2 article anyway.

Fair enough, didn't read the community rules, left. Easier.

Yeppers! "Propaganda" just what western ~~propa~~MEDIA wants you to spout when you come across an outlet that bucks the empire's desired narratives too much
