JRL Helpful Guide to Avoiding “Russian Lies”
[note from web editor: originally posted Aug. 26, 2014]
DJ: On rare occasion “Russian lies” show up in a few of these sources but for the most part you are safe. All of these have appeared in JRL and have achieved a greater coherence of message than, say, Russia Direct or the Valdai Discussion Club. Apologies if your publication has been left out.

p.s. You may note that JRL has not listed the Wall Street Journal. In contrast to the Washington Post which has successfully integrated reporting with the opinion page the Journal’s coverage of Russia and Ukraine is different. Most of these sources have Facebook and Twitter feeds which can enhance the experience. A few sources have been left off the list due to circumstances. Corrections welcomed.
