I think there is also the fact that the MSM media was well and truly blasted off the face of the Earth, let alone out of the park. The long-form, loosely structured interview was not only history-making because Putin finally spoke to the world, after having been made out to be the man afflicted by the worst type of evil. It was that the un-clip had more than a billion views, when the propaganda networks are lucky to count viewerships in the Millions, and that is with airport contracts to play their channels 24/7.

That is orders of magnitude more.
