All newspapers and TV companies that have any effect whatsoever on the electorate are moving to the goverment (Gazprom-Media buying them for example). With no free media in Russia and no competition, the official versions of events get more stupid as the time goes by. If I was to recommend a paper in Russia it would be www.vedomosti.ru It is a financial paper but it has less propaganda that ANY other media outlet in the country. That is the unfortunate truth.

But this doesn't make NTV less propagandist than the other Russian TV channels. Belarus really has much better chances to recover from dictature than Russia.

The report about Georgia I find typical... And the one about America just plain amuses me :D The NTV show... should that even be taken serious? From my point of view Georgia doesnt have any interest in Belarusian politics whatsoever, let alone planning an assassination. And especially for such a poor reason! I too rarely watch tv... not per se due to propaganda or the likes... mainly because of advertising. I'm tired of having to turn down the volume every 10 minutes because someone is (again) trying to talk people into buy the latest model car which looks exactly the same as the one from 5 years ago (and probably is). In the past year they've tried so many methods and experiments I wonder if the advertising agencies can come up with any new tricks to deceive the public. News here is kept strictly national for some odd reason I cannot understand. Even if there is no national news whatsoever they just make some article up like "the nicest married couple of the countryside"... It makes me wonder if I was watching a kids show or the news. Mmm... I suppose you could place it in the category censorship? The rest of the world and the events happening are being ignored this way.
