Hiding something?

Re: "Is Putin no longer a master of disinformation?", (Opinion, March 5) and "Govt looks to pull plug on Russian state television", (Feb 28).

While I use to watch RT television it has now been blocked on my television set. So I can watch four anti-Putin "news" stations, but not one station which gives Putin's side. I think Putin is a thug. But I also believe the Americans are war mongers (Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, etc) who provoked the Russians by expanding Nato. More importantly, when people call for censorship I always ask: what are they trying to hide. After all, if the facts are on their side then wouldn't a fair and open debate be the ideal opportunity to prove it?
