Does this mean the MSM will now follow them here or will they denounce Steemit as yet another arm of the Russian propaganda machine?
Something tells me Steemit is a little too open and free, considering the fact that MSN no longer allows commenting on it's web site and Facechat has begun censoring content it deems inappropriate.
If nothing else, an alternative viewpoint of today's world events gives you an opportunity to form your own opinions.
This is a great example of what 
RT has also been one of the few news organizations to have reporters in the hot spots of the world (i.e. Murican proxy wars) over the last few years.
Which begs the question:
Is the MSM critical of RT because it contradicts the West's propaganda or because RT's reporters are bravely going where the western MSM reporters used to go in decades past?
Maybe a little (or a lot) of both.
I'm following them.
