I thought he was like one of the most important whistleblowers of our time exposing war crimes and shit. Some of you don’t wanna see him live another day, why is that?

He gained a Russian bias in terms of what documents he published.
“A show on a dictatorial regime’s state TV” doesn’t exactly inspire much confidence either.
RT had a lot of independance, and putin’s dictatorial control hadn’t completely solidified yet.
if you couldn’t imagine them taking an opportunity to be broadcast all across the globe, then you’re very miopic.
it was an assange interview show… he interviewed people… it was a good show
aaaand, you’re repeating the same rumor over and over.
no, they didn’t show any bias in what they published. straight up lies
Russian press freedom has been under attack since way before the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2014. RT 10 years ago is not RT today, but it’s still not exactly an independent news source.
His willingness to publish documents incriminating some governments (famously the American government, of course) and not others shows a bias.
I’m not saying he’s an agent working for the Kremlin, but I do think he shows bias. And honestly, I can’t really blame him after the way the West treated him.
you definitely get it with RT having changed in the last decade…
but on Bill Maher he said A: they only publish things they can verify, and B: russia would not be shy about just assassinating him, so unfortunately they’re very hesitant to piss them off.
i need to find that clip and just reply with that…
