There is no solid Russian media as you are used to think about it (the freedom of speech is not just a word, in contrast to the USA it's really works here). There is a federal media, controlled by Putin and translating his point of view. And there is an independent media which is in opposition to Putin. I do watch and read the opposition media only, because I'm not interested in Putin's propaganda (never voted for him, never supported him and not interested in his propaganda "news"). More questions?
P.S. As you can see above, I have commented on the Ukrainian news and also posted a radio interception made by the Ukrainian secret service (never published by Russian federal media). So you can't call me a single-sided pro-Putin agent. All the materials used here were taken from the Ukrainian sources and all of them prove that MH17 was shot down by the Ukrainian citizens. Even the Ukrainian secret services prove that Russian army was not involved. Russian militaries are not that stupid as Ukrainian Cossacks. They don't use incomplete "BUK" systems and they won't confuse a civilian jet with the military one.
