I like to read from as many disparate news sources as I can, because there is an inherent bias in any media. CNN is biased towards the west and has their "facts". RT is biased towards the east and has their own set of "facts", which are in direct odds with CNNs. Both sides can't be telling the truth, and both sides are probably lying, but I believe an objective reading of both sides "facts" will get me closer to the actual truth, which is usually located somewhere in the middle.
Right now I'm leaning towards the "east" side because they are the only ones to produce any kind of evidence, rather than the speculation and misinformation we've gotten from the "west".
Who knows, tomorrow the US/UKR could finally release volumes of information showing missile plumes and rebels dancing in the streets. We could actually compare and contrast the 2 sets of evidence, and if its more credible than the Russians I would change my tune in a heartbeat.

It's pretty arrogant of you to assume that most people in this thread do not do the same thing.
