I'll likely post this on GD later, at a time it'll have a greater impact.
Derived from this chart:
The least Russo-phobic national media is at the top of the list; the most Russo-phobic at the bottom.
How this works. If the balance between neutral articles and negative articles are equal, you are assigned a score of 1. So even here, you can't exactly call them Russo-friendly either.
Some interesting correlations here.
Arab countries: All score 1 or less. While the USA has been making enemies here for who knows how long, the Russians are making friends. It never hurts to have 1.3 billion Muslims on your side.
The countries in yellow actually have a border with Russia. Do I see some slackers there?
USA is 5 times more Russo-phobic than Canada. But of course. The USA is an exceptional country, with exceptional media, and an exceptional leader. And blessed by God. Canada? Well, they're all hosers. And this winter has frozen their brains.
The USA is 2.5 times more Russo-phobic than Ukraine. And Georgia is not very Russo-phobic at all.
Only 2 European countries that border Russia have a score > 2. The USA scores over 6.
The USA is NOT #1 again. They fall behind Germany. But at least Germans are starting to see through the BS, because the sanctions they applied on Russia are biting them hard, and the counter-sanctions by the Russians are biting too.
