CMRivdogs Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Direct TV dropping the Putin Channel https://www.cnn.com/2022/03/01/media/directv-rt-america/index.html Quote DirecTV is cutting ties with RT, the Russia-backed television network infamous for promoting Vladimir Putin's agenda. A spokesperson for the US satellite carrier told CNN on Tuesday that the company had already been reviewing whether to renew the outlet's carriage agreement, which was due for expiration later this year, and that Russia's unprovoked war on Ukraine sped up its decision. "In line with our previous agreement with RT America, we are accelerating this year's contract expiration timeline and will no longer offer their programming effective immediately," the DirecTV spokesperson said in a statement.

You have to wonder what Boris Johnson and his Brexit hardliners think about this. It makes Boris and the UK look bad IMO. a little bit of reading on this topic reveals general pessimism that this will take 20 years. Turkey is still not in the EU for example despite applying in 1999. I was scratching my head that this was like...an immediate declaration of War for Ukraine. What it means maybe is that the EU doesn't want Ukraine to fail and will keep funneling arms etc. I think also this explains the exemplary behavior of Turkey in this crisis.

antrat Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I miss the good old days when we had a president that would get down on his knees and pleasure the Russian leader. This is why Vlad is so intense lately. Without Trump to service him, he has to find other outlets for his masculinity complex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
