| Feb 15, 2023 at 20:39 | comment | added | NoDataDumpNoContribution | This question was written in 2015. While it's still actual, the situation could have changed. It's reasonable to assume that the question primarily was concerned about the situation then. | |

current didn't age well in that case, replaced by absolute time reference

| Feb 15, 2023 at 17:54 | comment | added | alamar | There is a huge amount of subjective bias in Western reporting - after all, they all back one side wanting it win (Ukraine vs. Crimea & Donbass). Meanwhile, they have just the opposite bias with Syria or Serbia's Kosovo (wanting Western-backed rebels to score against a recognized state). | |

cannot brand russia as "Eastern" - the Eastern sphere has many other countries including Singapore and Qatar

| Jun 19, 2017 at 18:45 | comment | added | ohwilleke♦ | I would distinguish between accuracy and lack of subjective bias. I don't think that there is a huge amount of subjective bias in Western reporting on the Ukraine, but due to limited media resources in the region, it may not be the most accurate source of information. | |

| Jan 30, 2015 at 11:55 | comment | added | Anixx | I suggest a somewhat different approach than comparing German media to Russian media. Try to compare German media to German media, basically how they report on different conflicts. Compare, for instance, how they report on current crisis in Ukraine to how they reported on the crisis in Syria and Libya. The both Syria and Ukraine currently (and formerly, Libya) suffer a civil war. Do you see any difference in how the media treats the government side and rebels in these cases? This will more or less provide an answer to your question. | |

| Jan 2, 2015 at 19:05 | comment | added | Aleksandr | I am from Russia and we do have strong propaganda, but I'm afraid that the same rate of propaganda is at Easrtern media, because independence of the media from government does not make it independent of its sponsors or funds. When I'm struggling with the acception of any piece of news I ask myself only one question - "who would benefit from this?" - and sometimes it really makes sense. | |

| Jan 2, 2015 at 2:43 | comment | added | Affable Geek | You're basically asking us to weigh the relative bias in Russian vs. other media. That's going to be very subjective, and may not lend itself well to question and answer format. I'm willing to follow community lead here, but I don't think you'll get a good answer. | |
