Sputnik Radio announced Friday that it has taken over 105.5 FM, which previously aired bluegrass music. In a statement, Mindia Gavasheli, the editor-in-chief of Sputnik's D.C. bureau, accused U.S. news organizations of unfairly attacking and criticizing the news outlet, which is funded by the Russian government. "We're glad to finally be able to directly address our listeners in Washington. During the last few months Sputnik Radio has become the target of constant attacks in the US corporate media," Gavasheli said. "And often the people who wrote or spoke about us didn't even bother to listen to our broadcasts first." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Cool. Soviet propaganda on our own airwaves! what could possibly be Un-American about that? Spineless White House. Vlad's weak little ****es. Rot America from the inside... which, by the by, is a tool used by the Soviets to foster communist revolts in countries in central america once upon a time. But hey,, if it's good enough for them, amiright? It's those dark immigrants who come here to 'work' that subvert us. ~Bang 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgold Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 (edited) 40 minutes ago, twa said: Burgold going into radio now? Nope. Left VOR 4 years ago because they took a bad turn. When they started out the DC bureau it was pretty pure. Things began going really badly after Ukraine. In fact, they closed our bureau because there were too many reporters there. They changed management, mission, and even the name. I was proud of the science reporting I did with Prism. What they are doing now is dreadful. It's Breitbart, FOX News level stuff. Edit: On a pure level, I have nothing against foreign journalism broadcast here. BBC is the easiest example, but we also have French TV, Al Jahzeera, and most other voices. The question the viewer needs to keep in mind is what value do you get from listening to an alternate point of view (another country's perspective) vs. what is that country selling.

(As opposed to the other way around). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseBlitz Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 That is a bold move by the Russians. I wonder if Trump will have a weekly call-in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 I dunno. I get the impression that now days, there's a lot of crossover between the country/bluegrass music and Russian propaganda demographics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
