How do you define "free press"? Is the dailymail or deutche welle free?? I guess "free" is something that only serves American interests. And I'm not amused either when someone posts an American/British ranking of "free press". I'd say a free source is one which shows 2 sides of the story and presents very obvious evidence for the story, unfortunately vice, deutsche welle, washington post do not quite fit in the freedom definition.

What do you mean by free media?

Does this an independent journalist belong to the free media?

Free press doesn't exist in Russia:-

Of course we all know that in Russia's history it very rarely did!

Exactly, and if doesn't exist in Russia, why on earth would it exist in a conflict area such as separatist Donbass?

In a country without free press you can't mock the leader on the most viewed tv show, can you?



In Russia you can...and it took me 30 seconds to find it:

meanwhile in America things don't end very well when you make jokes about the american president, google "google ceo trump idiot" and you'll see:

No, you're wrong.. The "free" press is just such a press that dances to the tune of the United States.

It’s the beginning of the end for Putin. He’ll be done by April. I’ll be revisiting this post in two months.

Bold claim. Do you think he will resign? Do you think there will be a coup? Do you know he's terminally ill?



Please explain how you think he'll be gone within the next 6 weeks.

Nice try! Phillips Graham is far from independent and unbiased. He is pro-Putin and has worked for RT, which is an offical Russian propaganda outlet.
