Ukraine Hysteria, US Hypocrisy, Keystone Protest

US media go into overdrive over Russia/Ukraine. And a big anti-Keystone XL rally at the White House hardly makes the news.

This week: US media go into overdrive over Russia/Ukraine, painting the conflict as proof that Barack Obama isn’t feared enough. Plus pundits laugh at Putin’s delusion–but what about John Kerry’s? And a big anti-Keystone XL rally at the White House hardly makes the news.

 

Before you go — An urgent appeal for your support

Truthout relies on individual donations to publish independent journalism, free from political and corporate influence. In fact, we’re almost entirely funded by readers like you.

Unfortunately, donations are down. At a moment when our journalism is most necessary, we are struggling to meet our operational costs due to worsening political censorship.

Truthout may end this month in the red without additional help, so we’ve launched a fundraiser. We have 7 days and still need to raise $44,000. Please make a tax-deductible gift to Truthout at this critical time!
