I agree that RT is a bit heavy on calling down the West, specifically the US, but they do give different angles which our corporate media won't touch. It was embarrassing watching all the big corporate stations beating the drums for the US to go into Iraq when the average person knew it was a mistake. A million people protested in London England and it didn't change a thing. The west never talks about the coup in Ukraine which tossed out a democratically elected leader and placed a western puppet in his place. I could go on and on, but you get the point which is we don't trust our own media, so at times RT is at least a different point of view.
