Russia Today is widely regarded as a Putin-focused propaganda network, with a penchant for being anti-Israel.
Yet this is exactly why Israel’s voice is needed in such a setting. The network, for better or for worse, is widely viewed in the EU, throughout Africa, and has a very strong social media presence.
In this interview, I began by clearly stating the reality of the situation, rebutting some of the lies and conspiracy theories the network had stated on the show, and finally stated my frank opinion about the network’s level of professionalism and morality in this situation.

Even as I took a strong tone and displayed an appropriate degree of personal emotion, I carefully based every statement on knowledge, research, and strong objective, factual support.
In our experience at RealtiyCheck, this approach consistently inspires at least some viewers to question the credibility of the stories they have heard, and to change their minds about Israel.
As disturbing images continue to come out of Gaza, international pressure and false narratives will seek to portray Israel as a villain. For this reason, effective communication is a security priority for Israel and the Jewish people. You can watch the full 10 minute segment here.
