Okay, I'm not sure that tells us much of anything. It's obvious that MSM is state run. RT lies for Putin. US MSM lies for our interests. It doesn't really tell much about the situation, just tells us the obvious.

The west MSM did not cover this topic with putins plane - RT did.
Putin's spokesperson dismissed the article claim.
So I am not sure how west MSM comes into the equation.
As for RT lying, thats a given since its their standard. In this case the lie they told did not work for the Kremlin, who tossed RT to themselves on this article.

Well here's an interesting angle coming from RT.
Malaysian Airlines MH17 plane was travelling almost the same route as Russia’s President Vladimir Putin’s jet shortly before the crash that killed 295, Interfax news agency reports citing sources.
“I can say that Putin’s plane and the Malaysian Boeing intersected at the same point and the same echelon. That was close to Warsaw on 330-m echelon at the height of 10,100 meters. The presidential jet was there at 16:21 Moscow time and the Malaysian aircraft - 15:44 Moscow time,” a source told the news agency on condition of anonymity.
"The contours of the aircrafts are similar, linear dimensions are also very similar, as for the coloring, at a quite remote distance they are almost identical", the source added.
Now that is one helluva statement. Of course the source is protected but it would make for quite a story. All things considered, any narrative being offered from either side should be taken with a grain of salt.

Here is a pic that shows a side-by-side.

Then don't reply to me and say essentially nothing, of which I covered and went far beyond, and think you're somehow adding anything at all.
It's one sided, and very annoying.

You're not this dense. You replied to my post, of which I included a MUCH bigger picture than the fraction you're choosing to focus on.
The west MSM comes into the equation because it seems obvious to me that ALL MSM news sources are lying on this issue. If you want to believe that the west are the good guys, don't lie, and it's just evil russia or something, then we have nothing further to discuss.
As for RT lying, thats a given since its their standard. In this case the lie they told did not work for the Kremlin, who tossed RT to themselves on this article.
It's a standard for ALL MSM sources. You're basically telling us nothing whatsoever.
