generally, reporting on russia provides the 'modern western journalist' with the perfect challenge to reveal what a limited moron he/she is.... that's why when this moronic little upstart comes to russia, and reports, we get the same old crap: putin authoritarian, russia sux......... always very florid languid but very un-nuanced, really very limited reporting.... here benji reports on reporting by reuters that's a little more nuanced than the usual garbage the western media pumps out about russia -- here at least they make an effort to show some of the nuances in russian society instead of just telling us how backward and stupid the russians are in their florid, gay, uninformative language....
the main issue is that the western journalists come in with their own bigoted standpoints: if coming from australia they are bigoted pro-england, pro-english-monarchy, pro-england and normally cannot use english language properly, confounding brought with bought and such other hokey-isms.....
when coming from america, typically they are tokenist liberals that are anti-black except when it's tokenist pro-black and just generally ignorant, believing men to be evolved from monkeys
when arriving from italy, again, stupid, pro-catholic, pro-pope
the 'western journalists' do not appreciate or realize their own biases, but to the discerning reader, or just to basically anyone not from their own national bias, it's more than obvious
