PRESSTV ***** Awesome ! everyone American should at least Google it ,and be a free enough person of mind to view Presstv for yourself.They have a very professional format, I have never seen on U.S. networks. Presstv New is Global breaking News They Covered a full spectrum of documentary.There forums offer open debate.Gaza is hot.Yet expect to see.life in a Mexican town,or interviews with the residence of Columbine,describing their lives after that day.Quality programing amust see !

Im just going to copy-paste my earlier statements as well now; without rearranging the words;

"I read news at presstv . ir and russiatoday . com regurarly. They are good news channels. Look at a lot of their reports on youtube as well. Only believing in the news from the west is the same at only liking the "cool kid" at school because everybody else does so too. "

I recommend everybody to look at both RT and presstv in addtion to other news channels to make a better picture! :)

There are channels who know their job: bringing news from all corners of the world and bringing only the proven facts, while given all sides equal opportunity to present their views and there are those who come up with a cheap, cowardly lying picture while trying to mask a state-sponsored and endorsed agenda and propaganda behind a primitive visual clone of the "news channel"

[dimakir]

See, when you have nothing much to defend the position you're switching fast to being personal and partial.The topic of this discussion is not my or your political views(which you're trying to integrate into your answers) but rather the quality, impartiality, fairness, scale of opinions, technical and moral aspect of the information which propaganda channels provide or rather as could be seen do not provide to the viewers. You can like or dislike western policies. One thing is clear: ->continued

[Tahmmo]

Even blind people can smell, but thats just a meaningless answer to your meaningless reply. You did not answer, and you are repeating your self. It is clear that everybody that does not see the same as you in this case is blind. You truly are a perfect person/analyst.

[dimakir]

"The crap" proves it for itself better than any discussion possible. But if I see blind people on the sidewalk I would warn them that there's a very stinky russian and iranian crap ahead. If the blind want to get into it, smell it and eat it - it's their right and desire. I wish that "the crap" would really :shine a light on dark things". But there's not even a single exclusive event.When the aim is propaganda you can't really do a  news channel. It's a matter of analysis not the matter of item.

[Tahmmo]

ok, I dont know ehy you use so much time discussing "rubbish". I would not. If i see crap on the sidewalk I dont stand their trying explain that "this is crap". But obviously,,you know that you actually have to "prove" that this is crap. And real crap does not need to get proved. Clearly..it cant be, that its only "onesided, rubbish". They are shining light on things that some people dont want to much light on, cause like vampire,,these facts can't live too long in light.

[Tahmmo]

But what your saying does not make sense. The political opinoins allways shines through a new channel, wether you want to accept it or not. I know that a lot of the things they are saying is not new for you, but for people living around the world, specially the US. A lot is new.

[dimakir]

"if it was baseless the channel would not have been mentioned anywhere"

Well, they're not mentioned anywhere on the global scale. Sporadic report here and there, like this one from CNN, regarding the start of the primitive propaganda channel but no serious news agency or any agency (unless it belongs to the same authoritarian camp), quotes or takes their "news" seriously. Same goes for most of the viewers. It's a global world today. You have quality products and you have this kind of rubbish

[dimakir]

I think you should not try to mix your own political views with the topic discussed - impartiality and trustfulness of information provided. None of the propaganda channels that you adore so much fit this criteria. In fact it's not that they're bringing any new, unknown topics. They're bringing the same stories while mixing the item with the political stance of their state-sponsors, marginal puppet "experts", false facts and figures and strong manipulation. And that's a big difference.
