the ptb are getting more absurd every day and here, caitlin shows you some of their most curious hypocrisy;
The British Foreign Office has banned Russian outlets RT and Sputnik from attending the upcoming Global Conference on Media Freedom in London, citing their predilection for “disinformation”.
“We have not accredited RT or Sputnik because of their active role in
spreading disinformation,” said a Foreign Office spokeswoman.
“It takes a particular brand of hypocrisy to advocate for freedom of
press while banning inconvenient voices and slandering alternative
media; sadly, the world has learned to expect just that from the UK
Foreign Office,” RT said in a statement in response.
“It amounts to direct politically motivated discrimination of the Russian channel,” said the Russian embassy
in London. “The refusal of accreditation comes on top of the
months-long smear campaign against RT by British political figures,
governmental bodies, including media regulator Ofcom, and even fellow
journalists.”
“Now a leading Russian international TV channel is denied access to
the forum, despite being officially registered and working in the UK, on
legal grounds,” the embassy added. “What better illustration of the
real situation with media freedom in the UK does one need? Yet the
organizers of the Conference, as far as we understand, wish to discuss
the situation with media freedom anywhere in the world, but not in this
country.”.........https://www.lewrockwell.com/2019/07/no_author/government-that-tortures-journalists-bans-rt-from-media-conference/
