Russia Today

Has anyone ever watched this channel? It is so comically pro-Russian propaganda and anti West and America, and how everything being done in the West is incorrect

How do they think anyone will not see straight through this?

I caught a few minutes of it in a hotel in Munich a month or so ago. I found it quite amusing!

I found a fantastic blog yesterday with awful Russian Wedding photography in it. It's so bad it's genius. I'll dig it out later and post it.

What exactly do you get on Russia Today? Any cool cartoons?

It's normally anti-Europe European 'historians' being 'interviewed' about how Russia is misunderstood, how Russia bridges the cultural gap between east and west.

I used to watch it with my ex. She was a Russian film director, and she just found the channel embarrassing despite making some slightly one-sided films.

Whenever I'm in Moscow, I avoid turning on the TV.

In soviet Russia the television watches YOU!

Damn those KGB types! What will they think of next?

Goose · 09-10-2010, 22:36

Um, the FSB?

Wondered if someone was going to task that. FSB is post-Soviet, so KGB was correct in the context.
