One problem for the Russians is that they have not yet learned how to play the media game. Their authoritarian government might never do so.
Right! They did not learned how to lie, make false assumptions, put fake photos, press people minds with constantly putting same false pictures of destructions, refugees...like CNN, BBC and other western media. But truth is slowly appearing anyway...truth about USA , western Europe , NATO and others actions. No one else believes western media. People are turning to Al Jazzira to learn truth. They may even turn to Russia today as time goes...
They [the Russians] did not learned how to lie, make false assumptions, put fake photos, press people minds with constantly putting same false pictures of destructions, refugees..

I have a gut feeling that most of the others are following (copying) in BBC and CNN foot steps. Prove me wrong where ever you can...
Well, I tell you it's not the case for the French media, Martin tells you it's not the case for the German media, MarekNYC showed it's not the case for the Polish media, so your "gut feeling" is wrong. I also think we would find it is the same for the Italian and Spanish media.
I will not waste time to "prove" you wrong. Either you believe us or our dialogue is useless and you can stick to your prejudices. "Dieu se rit des hommes qui se plaignent des conséquences alors qu'ils en chérissent les causes" Jacques-Bénigne Bossuet
The opinion of the european people, that may be less blinded by the propaganda to follow and support a unlimited endless war, doesn't matter a bit right now. As in the US you can just choice between two faces for the same policies. There is no choice between policies in the western democracies. And in the coming years as the european media becomes less free and even more controlled by the same interest groups than the US media any remaining oposition or doubts will disappear.
What's amusing is to see the leg humpers huff and puff that they are something other than neocon propaganda apparatchiks. In totalitarian states/times, there was no need. In the West, particularly in the AngloAmerican sphere, media lickspittles feel find it necessary to pretend they are anything but servants, hence the hypocrisy.
