    It does appear to be from a junk tabloid paper, but implying that Russian media is inherently dubious is lib shit.

      Actually it is from Komsomolskaya Pravda, which is translated as Truth of the Communist Youth. With the name like this I assume they are very trustworthy.

        Sadly, Komsomolskaya Pravda was privatised in the 90s. It's a joint stock company right now and has nothing to do with its name and original purpose

      If it's stuff that's mad juiced up and has a big budget? Yeah it's sus, just due to how lockstep the Russian capital oligarchy is compared to other countries.

      Of course, that aint meant to say that anything russian is inherently suspicious, just the things that look connected to their version of our MSM

        I'm not sure their oligarchy is any more coordinated than any western capitalist country. RT is probably their biggest media company and they're not too bad, certainly no worse than CNN.
