two superbly done pieces of anti-Russia propaganda, which could as well have been written by the U.S. CIA, or by Voice of America, it was so skillfully deceiving.<\/p>\n<p style=\"background-image:

background-repeat: initial initial; padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 24px 0px; border: 0px initial initial;\">One of these propaganda-pieces, on \u201cMorning Edition,\u201d presented Eleanor Beardsley alleging that the anti-immigrant political parties in Britain and France are anti-U.S. and pro-Russian because they are supposedly all \u201cfar right\u201d; and the other piece, on \u201cAll Things Considered,\u201d presented Corey Flintoff alleging that Russia\u2019s President Vladimir Putin \u201cseized Crimea\u201d (as if he hadn\u2019t actually rescued it) and thereby caused U.S. President Barack Obama and the EU to respond with economic sanctions as punishment for the \u2018seizure\u2019 (actually, as we\u2019ll show, rescue).<\/p>\n<p style=\"background-image: initial;

Cozy, With Benefits For Both.\u201d<\/a>\u00a0She noted that, in France, \u201cMarine Le Pen, head of the National Front, has made no secret of her admiration for Putin,\u201d while, across the English Channel, \u201cNigel Farage, the head of UKIP, Britain\u2019s far-right party, called Putin one of the world leaders he admires most.\u201d Beardsley was trying to suggest that Vladimir Putin is a fascist, and she argued on this false basis that \u201cEurope\u2019s Far Right And Putin Get Cozy\u201d because they\u2019re all \u201cfar right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"background-image: initial;
