Parroting. i already knew that ukrainian nazis were real. the host lee stranahan calls himself pro-russian. and while the world condemns russia for the atrocities in bucha, where the ukrainians were bound and executed, some sputnik hosts aren t convinced. there s not much dispute over whether these atrocities actually occurred. i think the question is who s responsible for doing it? they claim to simply be offering a different viewpoint. asking questions, challenging the narrative which often veers into conspiracies, seeding doubt and distrust, classic misinformation. the companies that put sputnik on the air are forced to register. sputnik is required to tell listeners who backed them, a media group funded by the international government.

Washington. our alex marquardt got a taste of its programming. reporter: driving around downtown washington, if you tune the radio to 105.5 f.m., you land on radio sputnik, a station funded by a russian state media agency, playing in the american capital on public airwaves. here in d.c., you can listen to sputnik on both f.m. and a.m. radio. their shows are hosted by americans and they continue to broadcast even when other russia-backed outlets have been taken off of platforms like youtube and facebook because of russia s war in ukraine. the hosts can often be heard parroting kremlin talking points on ukraine. i already knew that ukrainian nazis were real, and when putin started talking about it, i was like, well, it s about time you talk about it. host lee strana hshlgs an
The democratic congressman, he takes his cues from his leader, president biden. i don t hate anybody. i look for grace wherever i can find it. i have spent time with him. president biden is a nice guy. he is. is president biden a perfect person? no. does he try to do better every day? also no. there lies the problem. he keeps trying to stuff more diapers down the toilet. he goes down to georgia two weeks ago and demonstrated raw gut racial demagoguery. that s what the congressman is parroting, the clip you just showed. president biden basically said to tens of millions of americans who don t want to have an election month. they want to have an election day. who believe that if you vote,
Democracy is very much up for debate. what we ve seen in that country is democratic backsliding, the idea that all of the norms, all of the markers for what is a thriving democracy have slid backwards. that s what we ve seen in some other eastern european countries. carlson is holding it up as something to be learned from. why do they care so much about this country of 10 million people. the question should be bountced back to him, why is he so interested in hungary, this desire for a more authoritarian approach, a approach much more based in control of media and government and society. it s so weird, i just you know, why would you go and do, you know, live reporting from hungary twice in a year when you re the host of an 8:00 show on fox, it is so strange, but then when he goes out there and parroting kremlin talking points about nato.
Russian misinformation and parroting russian talking points. you are not aligned with longstanding bipartisan american values which is to stand up for the sovereignty of countries like ukraine. but othersei their right to t choose their own alliances and also to stand against very clearly the efforts or attempts or c potential attempts by any country to invade and take territory of another country. that applies to senator holly, but it also applies to others who may be parroting w the talking points of russian propaganda leaders. so o obviously that s completely ignorant because she s completely ignorantan . go back to oberlin, honey. but what s so galling is to beso lectured as unpatriotic by people who affirmatively dislike the countrypl who thinki its history began in 16 nineteen ensign who accused america of being systemically racist, who don t like america are whipping around and attacking anybody who has

Elaborate disinformation plot that it could use as a pretext, a fabricated excuse for russian forces to invade ukraine. here was deputy national security advisor john finer on this network earlier today, confirming the details of that plan. we know this is an option under consideration that would involve, you know, actors playing mourners for people who are killed in an event that they would have created themselves. that would involve the deployment of corpses to represent bodies purportedly killed of people purportedly killed in an incident like this. that intelligence only adds to the biden administration s full plate of combatting disinformation abroad and here at home. to that point, it has accused a sitting u.s. senator, missouri s josh hawley, of, quote, digesting russian disinformation and parroting russian talking points. joining us now is kate bedingfield, white house communications director, a normal day at the white house,
