Add RTV (Russian Dish TV) to the RW media brigade....
Edited on Mon Dec-27-04 12:48 AM by podnoi
It seems that RTV is taking the plunge to the right. They have been heavily conservative in their recent reporting. They just has a segment about Social Security and completely parroted the administration line. "No hope, it is utterly broken" was their informed analysis.
They have added conservative talking heads as well.

RTV is the offshore russian TV channel. Anyone know who owns it?

4. Used to be, immigrants from East Europe were becoming GOP-ers
Edited on Mon Dec-27-04 09:02 AM by robbedvoter
out of misperception that they were standing for the opposite than the governments they were escaping from. (Reagan's remarks on the evil empire?)So, there are communities - not just Russians who resemble the Cubans. Things are changing though as US is becoming now more hated than Russia used to be in the region (they hate wars there too it seems)
So, I suppose this effort is trying to hang on to the older Russians, the ones that didn't figure it yet that all extremists are the same - be them from the left or from the right.
