Because it normalises the site as reputable source. Yes, there are most certainly some unbiased articles there, but at the end of the day it is still a propaganda tool. Russia uses the same playbook with RussiaToday: Tons of propaganda and some factual news sprinkled in between, so they can point to those and claim "Its not just propaganda".
Completely agree but are we going to do the same for western sources which depending on the source do the exact same thing.
Yes and many do. I.e. Fox News is a prime example of a western propaganda outlet which IMHO shouldn't be taken seriously as a source of information.
Yeah thank fuck, was just making sure we didn't have the western version of tankies here lol. Fuck fox news and fuck Murdoch.
