Sputnik Under FBI Investigation; Former Employee Turns Over ‘Thousands’ Of Documents

Regular readers know Sputnik. Sputnik is what would happen if you hired yourself about 30 circus clowns, 2 photoshop whizzes, 3 KGB agents, and a web developer, and made yourself a Kremlin-sponsored propaganda site that, based on the color scheme, thinks it’s always Halloween. Here's a fun screen grab that looks like it walked out of an undergraduate graphic design class: To be clear, Sputnik is a standing joke. Even more so than RT. No one takes it seriously.

  1. So slam RT and then quote US propaganda, I mean MSM, “news”, like Yahoo? LOL. Pot meet black kettle.
    You’re both part of the same hypocrisy except that most of the stupid american homeland serfs don’t get it.

    1. something tells me you have no first-hand experience with these Russian propaganda outlets. until you do, you can’t really speak definitively about whether there is a difference between American MSM and RT/Sputnik. Trust us, there is a difference.

      1. No I don’t, fair enuff. Just stuff like Jimmy Rogers regularly on RT in Singapore.
        But I’ve seen too much dubious American MSM stuff lately which, sadly, isn’t considered very objective anymore by me and in many places abroad. So for example, even RT gets more screens than CNNi at many international airports I frequent. BBC even more.
        Trust me. Or don’t, because as I usually say, Trust No One.

  2. In my former conversations with Mr. Irb, I found him to be a happy loner who no longer lives in the U.S. and brags about counting his money and not paying taxes (at least only minimally). He seems pretty clueless on day to day events in America. He does not mention travel, just visiting airports and watching television. He could be hiding from something or someone. Oh, and he does not have a television in his grass hut.

    1. ^ A fitting example of one of the aforementioned american homeland serfs who doesn’t get it.

      Dude, even if I “don’t have a television in my grass hut”, at least I’ve been in that foreign airport. In contrast, your ignorance of the world likely places you among the two-thirds of americans who don’t even fuckin have a passport.

      1. My ignorance of the world?… hahaha! I’ve forgotten more than you will know. Passport, expired. Me, retired. Livin’ the good life. 🙂
