It's blatantly anti American/West pro Russia.
When they report news about the US or Western Europe it's always the bad stuff. They selectively only cover things that shine a bad light on US/EU economy/society and always show reports about US military in an over bearing light as if we are the great Hitler trying to oppress the poor Russians.
Meanwhile when covering Russian related news it's always the cheerful happy rainbows & unicorns.
IE they show the doom & gloom scare tactics while trying to make Russia seem better than everyone else. RT is about as unbiased as FOX news..

Where excactly did I say, I believe 100% of what is said on RT?
What I said was: RT seems
pretty unbiased, but then it is Russian so obviously
people will think they are biased,
I sometimes think they are, some of the reporters and their
reports on certain things do seem skewed.
The Syria stuff on there is basically a mirror of what is being reported on other news channels,
some of it makes sense, maybe some of the massacres are being done by terrorists? I personally haven't been living in Syria this past week so anything I am seeing anywhere could be totally false. Other than what are seeing on TV, is there actually anything happening there at all? Has anyone directly posted video or anything directly from Syria live for all to see first hand and verified it using some kind of gps verification?
It depends on the story, and obviously what the angle is, when the Occupy movement started all the "mainstream" news was making them out to be dumb as fuck, homeless and jobless, puff smoking hippies (some of them probably were) RT interviewed a few people who actually made sense that were at protests and I don't remember seeing much of that on the other news channels.
You know the old saying, there is always 2 sides a story? One of them is usually lying.
