Established in 1986 as an independent national morning newspaper published in London, it was controlled by Tony O’Reilly’s Independent News & Media from 1997 until it was sold to*** Russian oligarch Alexander Lebedev in 2010.*** Since March 2016, it is no longer printed, but is available for readers online. The Independent tends to take a classical liberal, pro-market stance on economic issues. Has a left of center editorial stance.

Barryd999 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Oh I see! The internationally respected and seven times winner of the Press Awards "Foreign reporter of the year" Robert Fisk is making it up because he is in cahoots with the Russians. Ah. It all makes sense now. When he worked on the Sunday Express and Times it was just a front I bet. The man the New York Times described as "probably the most famous foreign correspondent in Britain" is just another Commie. The point is, he might be wrong, he might be right but I would trust him as a reliable source more than I would trust our spooks, Government and certainly more than whatever fudge the Yanks will try and pull if it turns out it wasnt a chemical attack.

"Yet for all the awards he has garnered, and despite his rare combination of scholarly knowledge, experience and drive, Mr. Fisk has become something of a caricature of himself, railing against Israel and the United States, dismissing the work of most of his colleagues as cowering and dishonest, and seeking to expose the West's self-satisfied hypocrisy nearly to the exclusion of the pursuit of straight journalism."

Violet1956 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 I don’t believe there is enough evidence to show that Mr Fisk is in cahoots with the Russians but I wonder who those “two Syrian friends” were that accompanied him the areas he visited in Douma and why he clearly was guaranteed safe passage. Pity the OPCW haven’t yet had any access with their sampling kits. It is an Area supposedly liberated from terrorists yet United Nations Department of Safety and Security personnel who were sent in advance to ensure the safety of OPCW staff came under small arms fire and an explosive device was detonated. Mr Fisk was just wearing a shirt and a jumper - he should have at least worn a helmet and flak jacket just to be on the safe side. https://www.opcw.org/fileadmin/OPCW/EC/M-59/en/ecm59dg02_e_.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
