Originally posted by seanD View PostAre you talking about their main channel or their sub channel? They have quite a few sub channels. Main channel definitely caters to the alt-conservative base (the Ron/Rand Paul types) who are against military and police state type issues.
They do give an unusual amount of space to Ron Paul, for whatever reason. Not so much Rand (that I could see).
But it is odd that the same government is controlling the agency and it has conflicting viewpoints, depending on the specific outlet.

It's kinda like my cable provider. There is a Chinese news station done in English way up "the dial" that is pretty obviously getting their instructions from Beijing.
I'm always still in trouble again
"You're by far the worst poster on TWeb" and "TWeb's biggest liar" --starlight (the guy who says Stalin was a right-winger)
"Overall I would rate the withdrawal from Afghanistan as by far the best thing Biden's done" --Starlight
"Of course, human life begins at fertilization that’s not the argument." --Tassman
