Description:

IMHO has a look at Berezovsky's claim there was a plot to assassinate him. Also, will the UK react to Moscow's response regarding the Lugovoy Affair? And lastly, why is Putin so popular and the latest events surrounding Kosovo.

Yes, the channel is horrible, and I do not know who would watch this...especially native Europeans or Americans used to CNN/BBC.

The channel is just frankly piss poor, biased and embarassing. This shouldn't have the effect of somehow insulting Russian national pride (there are plenty of crap UK channels!) My point is simply this: news should be impartial!

1. I just looked at the Russian Today website on the corporate profile page. They say: "Russia Today is the first 24/7 English-language news channel to present the Russian point of view on events happening in Russia and around the globe." Seems fairly clear. Not quite sure how doing this (badly) will magically result in foreign investment, but I'm willing to believe you... 2. What does the UK awarding political asylum to Berezovsky and Zakaev have to do with my comments?

Oh, and by the way, there are 30 criminals wanted in Russia having "political refugee" status in UK. One of them is mafia billionare Berezovsky. Another is leader of Chechen sepratist movement! Why does UK not respond extradition requests for these criminals?

The point of this news channel not to promote "our point of view." The point is to reverse stereotypes in West media such as vodka, bears, etc...thus yielding more foreign investment. It has pure economic reason for existance.

What do you think this kind of reporting achieves? It has the reverse effect of what is intended. We have the sense that we're being disinfomed and this makes us less likely to believe what we watch. The role of "news" should be to impart information in a fair, balanced and accurate way, not to present a single and clearly partisan interpretation. This channel is diabolically poor on every level and a frankly laughing stock among pretty much everyone I've spoken to who's seen it.

This is absolutely obscene nonsense. The very idea of having an English language news channel to promote a Russian point of view is absurd in itself. Who could possibly want to watch this crap? The very fact that its so overtly biased destroys the persuasiveness it might otherwise exert. Shows how utterly deluded these people are that they should waste money on this...
