Silence of the Press: US media turns blind eye to RT crew arrest

An RT crew was locked up in a U.S. jail for 32 hours after filming a protest against a controversial military training facility in Georgia dubbed the School of Assassins. Reporter Kaelyn Forde described her treatment as 'brutal' and international organizations condemned the use of police violence against members of the media. But despite all the outrage, American mainstream media has remained silent. RT's Gayane Chichakyan reports.

Fuck, the parallels between the US and Nazi Germany are fightening. Look into the laws and powers of the Gestapo, Germans and the DOHS. Hitler fed the population with propoganda about the Jews, Now the US has the same focus on the Arab states. No matter how you see it, the US is heading down a dangerours road when they remove the civil rights and liberty afforded to their citizens

@ andreestrs99..seriously, do you trust a news station called "FOX", wake up

@hotrod4you2 I think the word you're looking for is "traitor" not "trader". And how do you think a news agency called "Russia Today" would portray the U.S? It's mostly bullshit on either side of the fence, you just kinda have to take it all in and sift through the bullshit to piece together the truth...

Corrupt government, and corrupt business is a huge problem (mainstream media). If the don't want us to know something, they don't cover it, we need exposure!!
