While this web site<\/a> is in Russian, the videos and images don’t require much translation. It’s a catalogue of examples of Russian state media “recycling” of images from other times and places — dead bodies, mutilated children, bombings, downed UN planes, et al. — in order to discredit Ukraine’s (former) opposition or its (current) interim government.<\/p>\n

The sources include Syria’s current civil war (several images), Belgrade in the 1990s, Mexico’s drug war, the African Congo (that UN plane), and even a fire from Quebec’s Lac Megantic train derailment. All are presented as if these depict\u00a0victims of “Kiev’s fascist junta” or on-the-ground images from eastern Ukraine.<\/p>\n

See here for the article<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Then there is the army of internet trolls<\/a>. Media studies dissertations can be written about this stuff.<\/p>\n
