Is Foxtel going to cut the feed to Russia Today, or are we going to let propaganda be broadcast freely?

As a Foxtel subscriber, I want RT to stay on. It’s good to have a different perspective. Even if you disagree strongly with what RT is reporting, there is some benefit in understanding what Russia is thinking or what they’d like the world to believe.

Why? Are we at war with Russia? I like to think this is a free country that doesn’t impose media bans and people can choose what to watch

Sarah’s being subbed out. I assume once she gets back to the UK Chris Reason will go over.

Shame for Sarah she has spent over a month on the ground with nothing much happening and then getting sent home when it starts.

I’m not sure if they can Chris in since they have closed airspace around Ukraine.

Sarah most likely needs a break. I’m sure she’ll be back on soon.

I’m pretty sure that guy is a freelance photo/video journalist. If it is the guy I’m thinking of he was on the Latest last night.

Rolling coverage on the news channels has been excellent. Bit strange Sky News Australia is talking about other stuff. CNN, BBC, SKY UK, ABC24 all doing an excellent job.
