In reply to the discussion: BBC News uses 'Iraq photo to illustrate Syrian massacre' [View all]sabrina 1
(62,325 posts)15. And the BBC is a reliable 'News Source' that is not a 'mouth piece of the government'
But RT, only in its third year of operation, has already received the prestigious Monte Carlo Award for its 24 hour news coverage, but, I am told, a small group of people here have taken it upon themselves to block it as a news source in LBN.
LBN has really taken a hit regarding its own credibility.
I make sure every day to let people know that there ARE reliable News Sources available now in the US such as RT. It is because of these sources who report the facts about all that is going on in the world, that are making it more and more difficult for the War Mongers to influence people to get behind yet another disastrous war.

Kinda like when FOX "News" showed pictures from 92 of Iraq WMDs. The ones that were GONE.
