Russia Today

[TheBigUnit]

Well brought a TV from cousins house unfortunatly he apparenty set the parent safety settings all the way, i mean even pbs get blocked ha,....well i was too lazy to reset the tv during the school year so i just surfed around loooking for unblocked channels, i found a news channel called RT (Russia Today) im just wonderin what you think of it,
i find it as a very liberal channel like the anti-FOX which i dont mind cuz its entertaining time to time but it really doesnt focus on american matters just its problems like the colorado shootings they talked about gun laws rather than the victims, its news is actually very accurate but its so diffrent from abc nbc etc, there arent an commericials either meaning some really rich guy is the owner

but it really doesnt focus on american matters just its problems like the colorado shootings

No shit, its called 'Russia Today', not 'Russia, America, and every other country Today'.
Do you see our news channels broadcasting anything but american news, and problems from other countries? Because i don't.

Sure every once in a while there's some good news that we display over media, but not much of it. Most of the time it has to do with war and violence. Why? because that's what the world is right now.

I don't see why a russian news network would be broadcasting news pertaining to america.

Russia Today is pretty popular in the middle-east, with an inclusion of an Arabic version channel.

Yes. It doesn't focus solely on 'murica or its matters. It focuses on world wide events. It has some good documentaries. Unbiased news reports. Debates. Interviews. And what have you.

[TheBigUnit]

yea there so much coverage on the arab springs and ows

[MisterSix]

Its like a tame Al Jazeera

[TheBigUnit]

What do you mean?

I think RT Is "against" Al Jazeera too

Nope. As a Middle-Eastern, they are pretty much the same(although, the Arabia channel of RT is better than the Al Jazeera. Arabic Jazeera is kind of biased.)

Delivering global coverage. Except some percent of the focus are shifted towards their native regions.

Assuming i don't know what russia today is. Tsk.
Russia today is a government funded news network. Do you know why it was made? To attempt and duplicate the BBC, except for russia.

That being said the majority of their broadcasts are going to be centered towards russia. Because they are located out of russia. They won't be making very good statements about the united states. Once again, i'm not sure why you expected them to. News networks are pretty biased now, sadly.
