    I think you mean it’s designed to prevent partisan interference. RFE/RL’s purpose is to support US foreign policy which makes it inherently political. It is undeniably a propaganda outlet and therefore comparable in function to RT. You may trust American propaganda over Russian propaganda but that doesn’t mean the former is not propaganda.

      Just a question, what do you know about RFE/RL?

      Do you follow any of their news program series?

      Do you speak any other languageslioe Ukrainian, Belarusian or Georgian?

        I do check out RFE/RL and its sister outlets from time to time. It’s pretty obvious that their agenda aligns 1 for 1 with American foreign policy objectives. To be fair though, the US wouldn’t fund RFE/RL if it didn’t effectively dupe people into believing it was an unbiased source.

          Is there anything else that you noticed beyond “aligns with US foreign policy objectives”.

          Did you only read it in English? What other language services from them did you read.

            How’s that relevant? Do you have counter evidence for any of the points I made or are you just desperately trying to prove you’re not a dupe?

              I agree with you, I am very desperately trying to prove something to someone who can’t even read the work of RFE/RL!

              Total dupe!

                  There times when it is reasonable to trust the US government.

                  You should never trust anything that comes out of russia; even their “opposition” (let alone their government thugs).
