14. Is Baztab a credible news source?

Baztab's backers have unofficial ties to the Iranian Revolutionary Guards
and Iranian authorities are censoring Baztab content for its harsh criticism
of Ahmadinejad. Baztab represents Iran's anti-reform lunatic-fringe right.

A report from the Iran's state-run Press TV service says the crash
was an accident:
8 Iranians killed in military helicopter accident - IRIB/Press TV

The al Jazeera article at the link and the Press TV article both quote
Iran's official media saying that the Revolutionary Guards were fighting
PKK forces.
