found a really great article about this yesterday. It's in russian but translators are easy to come by.
Say what you will about russian media and propaganda but I don't see how it's remotely any less trustworthy then American media at this point. I encourage everyone to get a translator installed and start mining russian news. Always take with salt because you should do so with everything you read. With western governments moving to do away with access to anything russian media I'd say it's probably a good indicator that we're going to find something interesting.
