Media coverage of the Ukraine Crisis

Hello and welcome to todays blog post, if your new here welcome, put your feet up and have a look around !


During uprisings and major times of discontent in other countries, we really can learn a tremendous amount about how the world works. In general how societies, Countries and corporations work within society as a whole. Over the past weeks/months iv been closely following the Ukraine crisis, reading as much as possible into the events unfolding.One major factor that’s struck me (especially during the past week, as Russia has become involved in the crisis) is the workings of media in the world. The way in which media can change our whole opinion of the world. Even though the following collection of media is concentrated on Russian news channel RT (due to their quite open/obvious tactics of slanting situations) im not saying only Russia uses biased media. One thing i hope you take away after seeing the following collection of 'interesting bits' of media will be:  Never trust a single source of information, weigh up multiple sources then create your census/opinion !  


Here’s my collection of interesting bits of media, I’ll admit its all centred towards the Russian news channel RT, but it really is the most blatant. (For my next blog post i'll do some research to see if theres any comparisons with Americas war on terror.)
