Russian media falsely reports call between Estonian FM Paet and EU Rep for Foreign Policy Ashton regarding snipers http://www.stopfake.org/en/urmas-paet-dit-not-confirm-that-snipers-were-hired-by-leaders-of-maidan/#more-444 …
@occbaystreet I trust @AntDeRosa did his due diligence, to extent possible. RT spin on wiretap largely, not groundlessly, in doubt since ydy

@asteris@occbaystreet this isn’t RT spin, read both the@ForeignPolicy report and the report I linked to, they say the same thing -
@AntDeRosa@asteris@ForeignPolicy but one has a massively different headline and URL, which as a journo prof u know matters enormously. -
@occbaystreet@asteris@ForeignPolicy no, the URL does not matter -
@AntDeRosa@asteris@ForeignPolicy oh FFS. URLs very much matter which is why WaPo, Guardian, BBC, NYTs have own link shorteners. -
@occbaystreet@asteris@ForeignPolicy the URL doesn’t matter and that’s not why WaPo, Guardian, etc use link shorteners -
@AntDeRosa@asteris@ForeignPolicy come on, it's that they have their *own* shorteners rather than is.gd bitly or owly.
