Abby Martin just did an Interview with Howard Dean on RT.... KoKo Aug 2013 #16

It is interesting to browse, if you want to see anti-semetic comments. Socal31 Aug 2013 #17

That is Totally Untrue.. Why would you say such a thing? KoKo Aug 2013 #18

I read most my news, so RT.com was what I was referring to. Socal31 Aug 2013 #20

I agree...can you give Links to Facts on US TV that you Applaud as Journalism? KoKo Aug 2013 #22

Be careful of RIA Novosti as well. Their biggest "client" is the Federation. DevonRex Aug 2013 #19

I don't know what that is " RIA Novosti." Is it on the Internet or what? KoKo Aug 2013 #23

You are aware of the Russian Federation? DevonRex Aug 2013 #24
