      The "Putin murders journalists" line that every media hack now mindlessly parrots is, of course, lazy reductionism.https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2017-02-07/how-fair-is-it-to-call-putin-a-killer-as-o-reilly-did …

      "Putin presides over a violent political and legal system in which journalists have been killed" is less catchy though.

      Imagine if US journalists attributed every death which occurs within the US system to the president's personal whim. "Obama murders Afghans"

          Michael Hastings, Gary Webb off the top of my head. Didn't the US purposely bomb Al Jazeera, in Iraq, at the beginning of the Iraq war?

          Or Obama stood inside the NSA building and coordinated every hack. Isn't the CIA motto "can't be traced back...?"

          It's funny how the U.S. media knows to use "oligarch" when describing wealthy Russians, but in the U.S. billionaires are just rich people.

          Is this the kind of "news" a roving journalist covers? Kinda petty in your attitude there.

          Speaking of lazy US media, hows the next investigative journalism story going? Seems like Russian apologetics is all you do these days.
