He is "passive propaganda" he doesn't disseminate incorrect information but he avoids news that should be told. He avoids in depth discussion of Russian involvement. He'll talk about autism or something else when we need stories about the theft of democracy.

He gets paid by RT, the official outlet of Putin. What he says cannot be trusted.

On his show today, he was focused on voter suppression, single-payer health insurance, etc.

Which of his stories do you think do not support the Democrats? Only those who criticize (or which have criticized in the past have criticized) the Democratic party structure?

In the last election, I remember yelling at the television set repeatedly when time after time I listen to Deborah Wasserman Schultz justify placing the debates between the Democratic candidates in low watched time periods. Also, she justified not increasing the number of debates and also penalizing the candidates if they wanted to have debates other than the prescribed Democratic debates.

I think that many, many Democrats also strongly objected to Wasserman Schultz's manipulation of the debate schedule and I think that many of the people who objected are the really beating heart of our Democratic Party.

The Young Turks is a very progressive far-left show. That is exactly what some people here do not like about it. Ironically they actually call it "right wing" just to demonize it. TYT are critical of the Democratic Party and a lot of people here of course hate that. To call criticism of the party from the left "right wing" is just plain dumb.

The only negative thing I can say about TYT is that Jimmy Dore still seems to be associated with it (though he doesn't seem to be on often). He's turned into a total Susan Sarandon, Bernie-or-bust type crazy person.

But at the tail end of the election they were hard pushing Republican and Russian propaganda and conspiracies as they demonized Hillary Clinton. That's why people here hate them, not because they're progressive. It may not have been intentional, but they worked very hard to make sure Trump would be elected president.

The proof is in their constant tearing down of the Democratic Party.

Uygar is more overt about it than Hartmann, but Hartmann is worthless and is affiliated with RT which makes him a traitor.

Yes he does have some criticism for the Democratic Party and how the last qualifying election was conducted, and also how Wasserman Schultz was a strong supporter of payday loans, seemed to have her thumb on the scale, etc.

Thom regularly urges his activist listeners to go over to the Democratic Party and become a Precinct Person to help energize the party.

Sure doesn't seem right wing or traitorous to me.

Both of them have done so. Russia Today is Vlad's propaganda machine. RT did everything they could to spread lies and derail our election process. Both of the "progressives" that you cite spread lies and misleading stories about the Democratic presidential candidate.
