On the contrary, you might like to check the neutral [url=http://www.medialens.org]Medialens Organisation[/url] website, where the BBC is the focus of the majority of complaints. - Copy Dude Thu, 30 Nov 2006 16:02:17 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/340-litvinenko-and-limonov.html#comment-238 When remarking on tabloids and then naming the Telgraph, one should be careful not to mix the two... Furthermore, one might want to have a look at the BBC website, well-known to be perhaps the most neutral media medium in the world before assuming that the British media is in fact mixing and changing the facts on a daily basis hmm? there seems to be som much talk about the Telegraph. i wonder whether one reads anything else? - wennington blues Thu, 30 Nov 2006 15:31:56 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/340-litvinenko-and-limonov.html#comment-234 Limonov's politics are not material. The point is that Limonov was a dissident - doesn't matter what kind - when dissidents were not championed by a hypocritical Western media. It didn't suit them at the time. Western media wouldn't care what spots Limonov (or Politkovskaya) had if it made useful propaganda. As is proven by the elevation to martyrdom status of the highly dubious dirty trickster, Litvinenko. You can dispute the relative obscurity of Politkovskaya in Russia if you wish to pick on a tangent to rubbish the article - and perhaps you want to provide a link in support of your argument, as I do. But Novaya Gazeta is hardly Cosmopolitan, while publishing books outside the country, in a foreign language, is hardly recipe for local popularity. - Copy Dude Wed, 29 Nov 2006 14:30:42 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/340-litvinenko-and-limonov.html#comment-231 Oh - she's just telling him he's talking almost total nonsense, that Politkovskaya lived in Russia, wrote in Russian and was one of Russia's most respected journalists -- ie NOT "virtually unknown in Russia," as copydude would have you believe. Copydude would also like you believe that Eduard Limonov is...well...never mind...look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eduard_Limonov . The word fascist springs to mind. - FH Wed, 29 Nov 2006 00:52:57 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/340-litvinenko-and-limonov.html#comment-224 Luxemburg and copydude should explain their remarks, so those of us who don't swim in Russian language and literature could know what they're driving at. - Jimmy Montague Tue, 28 Nov 2006 14:56:14 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/340-litvinenko-and-limonov.html#comment-222 Try this line again: Unlike Litvinenko, Limonov wasn’t writing propaganda to order for Western consumption. - Copy Dude Tue, 28 Nov 2006 14:15:45 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/340-litvinenko-and-limonov.html#comment-221 So Politkovskaya didn't like Russia, and didn't stay there, and didn't write in Russian? She was just writing propaganda to order for western consumption? You guys have a pretty warped view. - Rosa Luxemburg Tue, 28 Nov 2006 12:39:44 +0100
