Mark Takes on Putin Propaganda Channel in Ukraine
April 26, 2014
Note how the Putin Propaganda host allows a pro-Putin speaker to go on for several minutes and then won’t give me 10 seconds to talk:

Usually I agree with left leaning pundits but I think the far left has become looney over this Ukrainian crisis. Look up Russian suppression of independent media – google it. It is ongoing and systematic. To discount what Putin may be up to is really naive. In March he passed a law that allows him to shut down any website without a court order and has used it to shut down dozens of those critical of him. It is almost impossible to find real critical news in Russia anymore. As a consequence support for him in Russia has become frighteningly high.
Lucy how about worrying about truth rather than party. Mark usually is left of center but it appears you’ve swallowed the far left line. Yes there are fascists elements in Ukraine but that may not be the overarching story.
I would not trust either line of thought at this time.

Mark,
You have swallowed the US propaganda line, hook, line & sinker.
You are shilling for the neocon warmongers.
You are wrong.
Heard that you are a progressive.
You are not.
Will not listen to your show.
You handled yourself poorly in the debate.
Sincerely,
Lucy

Thank you, James. I appreciate that.
And if you want to see hostility, check out some of the comments directed at me on Youtube!

I just wanted to say that I think you did a great job on ‘CrossTalk’ given the formidable hostility by Mr. Lavelle which at times seemed frankly, menacing. Anyone who seriously believes that ‘RT’ is a credible, independent news network needs their head examining.
