Is sputniknews.com Safe?

These guys make the most unbiased opinion when putting out news and they have some local branches for different countries a well. I think they understand how important is freedom of speech and injustice needs to be exposed, especially in countries where media is controlled by the government or just made a partnership to never say bad about the authorities.

Je visite le site Sputnik News depuis 03 ans maintenant. Je pense que ce site est un outil de désinformation active du gouvernement Russe. Très peu d'informations sont factuelles. La ligne éditoriale est fortement anti-occidentale et leur spécialité est le Fake news. Sur ce site, vous obtiendrez très peu d'informations sur l'actualité Russe, son obsession étant les USA et l'Europe Occidentale.

Strangely titled as "fake news", while they still like CNN, which is "officially named fake". Pathetic. Nothing wrong with this site, except the truth, that hurts so many warmongers and ultra-nationalists (nazis). We see this on how they handle Assange, who just disclosed the TRUTH!

Legitimate news site. Russian based. It is not propaganda. News from a country that is not your own does not warrant it being called propaganda nor does one country have a monopoly on truth. Very appreciative of news from other countries that show perspectives outside of typical Western view or American view. My opinion is that this site is less biased by far than CNN, MSNBC, FOX etc and more ethical.

This website uses that classic combination of using just-enough neutral information to not be seen as obvious propaganda, but then skews many articles in a direction to confuse and misinform. So I checked it out... turns out to be one of the outlets of Russian-government information warfare guys.
