Without actually reading it, I somehow think RT will select convenient non-russian news as well. Like, underlining Le Pen or AfD declarations or the post-Brexit downsides... there's room for disinformation also when doing a simple selection.

Of course they would. But thats not my point.

My point is if you want to hear about BS happening in your own country you'd probably read about it from foreign papers/sources first.

Those have no incentives not to bash your homeland, as oppose to local sources that have to balance not pissing off government (for access to interviews, news, sources) and ad revenue by reporting on the sensitive topics.

I'd put BBC or Al Jazeera as a example rather than RT or Xinhua.
