By default, ISPs where I am are required to block that link as it's Russia-based RT, ostensibly to keep us 'safe' from mis/disinformation. Actually, I don't know many people who take news stories from any source on trust anymore.

Once I got to the article, I saw it references western sources for it's information anyway, and there's no attempt to block those. The attempted block just makes me more aware of the efforts to manage my perception.

Exactly I post RT articles all the time and get the ad hominem responses, "iTs RuSSiAn diSiNForMaTiON" but when you say, "well yes but it is simply reporting on what the NY Times said" they really get triggered.

I trust no one but I sure catch RT in less lies than Fox or CNN.

MSNBC is now at a lower level then the Bat Boy mags that were in super markets 30 years ago.
