Welcome @russiatoday
Does this mean the MSM will now follow them here or will they denounce Steemit as yet another arm of the Russian propaganda machine?
Something tells me Steemit is a little too open and free, considering the fact that MSN no longer allows commenting on it's web site and Facechat has begun censoring content it deems inappropriate.
If nothing else, an alternative viewpoint of today's world events gives you an opportunity to form your own opinions.
This is a great example of what @dwinblood calls the triangulation approach to news.
RT has also been one of the few news organizations to have reporters in the hot spots of the world (i.e. Murican proxy wars) over the last few years.
Which begs the question:
Is the MSM critical of RT because it contradicts the West's propaganda or because RT's reporters are bravely going where the western MSM reporters used to go in decades past?
Maybe a little (or a lot) of both.
I'm following them.
Unofficial RT posting bot.

I hope even that will get more eyes on the channel.

I think ALL news has flaws but I kinda like RT in comparison to most news.

At the very least it's another viewpoint to see things from.
They actually had reporters in Syria and the Donbass and Crimea sending back video.
The rest just seemed to be parroting the official narrative from a script and that always makes me suspicious. Humans never agree to that extent on anything.

Yea, as soon as you see the narrative you know somethings up.
Keep paying attention, I see the "blind" part of ur name is a cover ;-)>

I'm guessing that's really not RT.
I saw another user posting content from someone else and using the name, but they weren't that source.

I hope it is really them. I guess they need an introduceyourself post!

But, who at RT would be the verified person?

They could post a picture of some folks holding up a Steemit sign inside their studio perhaps?

Well, right now they aren't even responding to a Tweet directed at them about it.

RT doesn't really need Steem, they are big already. CNN where are you? The Russians have invaded! 🤣
Btw, that account was created via anonsteem, I doubt it's the real RT.
And finally, when I want news, I go to their website, I don't need Steem for that!

Too bad.
I'm waiting for Stacy Herbert to mention "even a blind squirrel finds a nut" on the Keiser report next week as proof that it's really their account here.
