Liz Wahl, correspondent and former RT anchor, spoke with Hromadske about Russian propaganda, ways it’s being conducted, and how really work the RT America schemes.

“Conspiracy is one of the main instruments of Russian propaganda, and ‘Always blame Ukrainians’ is the main coverage strategy for RT. The principle is simple: ignore certain things, deny certain things, and in the end, just lie”, told Wahl.

Russian propaganda isn’t about convincing people, but more about starting a confusion.

In this interview Wahl has also revealed, that “RT actively recruits people who come from a fringe/conspiracy background”.
