An interesting story in the NY Times about how Russian leaders love and use Fox News in helping spread their propaganda to the people of Russia.

It seems that Tucker Carlson is a favorite of the Russian leaders.

Carlson who admitted to rooting for Russia has seen his segments played in the Russian media a number of times.

The Times writes, Russian media has increasingly seized on Fox News’s prime-time segments, its opinion pieces and even the network’s active online comments section — all of which often find fault with the Biden administration — to paint a critical portrait of the United States and depict America’s foreign policy as a threat to Russia’s interests. Mr. Carlson was a frequent reference for Russian media, but other Fox News personalities — and the occasional news update from the network — were also included.

Sergey Lavrov, Russia’s foreign minister, who has made several false claims about the war — including that Russia never attacked Ukraine — singled out Fox News for praise last month.

“We understood long ago that there is no such thing as an independent Western media,” Mr. Lavrov told the state television station RT, adding that “only Fox News is trying to present some alternative point of view.”

I don’t know about you, but if a country that is run by a dictator, that attacks and kills the citizens of a neighboring country praises your work and coverage of the event, I think you’re doing it wrong.

But hey, that’s just me…
