Walking today on the Upper West Side, I noticed recently placed phone booth advertisements on 68th & Broadway that featured a picture of Colin Powell with the tagline: “This is what happens when there is no second opinion. Iraq War: No WMDs, 141,802 civilian deaths. Go to RT.com for the second opinion.” RT.com (formerly Russia Today) has similar ads that feature former President George Bush with the same message. In short, the Kremlin-funded Russian TV station is using street advertising in NYC to influence the American people.

Comrade Øbama has spouted that same line for a half dozen years...
Putin luvs Bammy?
Hate to say it I used like Russia Today until they went all conspiracy lately I stop watching
One of MY PBS station used Russia today then I got bored start watching Al Jazeera English news turn Al Jazeera America
All this is happening for ONE reason. Thank you again, Congress.
For not impeaching Obozo?
Man, next logical step is Iranian state television. Leave off the foreign news and stick with Fox, which isn't perfect, but you can always supplement with FR.
NORK TV would be THE BEST!
The new Soviet Union—same as the old Soviet Union. And still serving propaganda clients in its old stronghold—the Upper West Side of NYC.
Actually on my PBS station carry Euro Journal I still watch that
Also BBC World news and France 24
This poster has been up at 100th and Broadway for months. I reported it on FR when I first saw it. Hi, Ronn.
I believe RT.com is a front for Obama.
>> next logical step is Iranian state television <<
Actually, such a channel is already available in the USA on free satellite TV. It’s on the Ku-band satellite at 97 degrees west. (I forget the formal name of the satellite.)
This Iranian government English-language channel is called “Press TV.” I have seen them a few times, and I must say that if anything, they appeared less blatantly anti-American than is RT! But they are deadly boring, and I can’t imagine they could ever attract a significant audience.
LOL
You sure DiBlasio didn’t buy those ads using money stolen from the chumps?
>> I believe RT.com is a front for Obama <<
I’d say it’s worse than that. RT seems to be a reborn version of the old Radio Moscow from Cold War days, combined with Soviet Pravda and Izvestia.
Moreover, the Americans who appear regularly on the channel are either nut-case conspiracy theorists like Paul Craig Roberts, or they are far-left ideologues who make POTUS Obola look downright conservative by comparison.
The majority of folks on the Upper West Side are to the left of RT. RT isn’t telling them anything they didn’t think they knew already.
RT is owned by the Kremlin
lol.
You can probably watch their newscasts online somewhere.
Communist China TV, CCTV, was on Veri_on cable last time I had that
