on Youtube, and as a news organization it sits well to the Left of
things. Too, RT covers American politics with alacrity. This clip is
a rather surprising interview conducted by RT. It's rather
interesting, and their assessment of the American press, I think,
can't be so readily dismissed.

Just to follow up, quickly. This is a case where it should be
difficult for left-leaning persons to use the circumstantial ad
hominem for which they have an irresistable penchant. It's not as
though such a person can say, "Well, what do you expect from a GOP
backed news organization!" I have no doubt, though, that some
left-leaning person will sneak in some fallacy to in an attempt to
innoculate the implications of this interview.

Huh? Why would anybody argue with this?
Might as well argue the sun rises in the west.
Do you have a point to make?
If so, I missed it.
