Waiting breathlessly for Consortium version.
Actually I am always wondering what the hell that is all about. Is it like the flip side of Trump fantasy "make America great again", a bunch of old fellow travelers of the Soviets thinking that it is still all the communist friendlies over there in Russia being attacked by the American hegemon media machine beholden to the Military Industrial? If so, so ironic, because the sources they are attacking, like PBS, used to be the ones that were commie friendly. Kind of delusional, can't really think of an explanation. Wish there was an "ask Julian Assange" column.

You are a news junkie. Have you noticed any difference over the years in the tone/spin/attitude/deference to power/etc over the years. The Republican Party, spearheaded by the Newt, attacked PBS threatening their funding. Right wing management was put in place. They started accepting advertising from major corporate donors. The Republican mission has been to a large extent successful. PBS and NPR have become way more "Fair and Balanced".

"Waiting breathlessly for the Consortium version." Breath easy. The story the way you like to hear it is out in front. I know it is heresy to even question whether it has actually been established that the Russians are guilty so let's just stipulate that they are. There is one aspect of this story though, one so far, that I am curious about and hope someone with sources close to the bone, or just a logical possible explanation that I cannot now see, tries to answer. Why would the D.C Police and the FBI, who know a person was murdered and believe with confidence it was done by the Russians, cover for the Russians? Why try to make the crime just go away? If that is happening to the general knowledge of FBI agents not even connected to the case but it can only be revealed anonymously, is it reasonable to believe that orders to that effect have been given and instructions are being followed? And why would the same thing happen fourteen times in England?
