I have been following the Ukraine situation for sometime and the reports from the different news outlets are just full of propaganda.

One has to use ones skill derived from years of experience of following
world upheavals to make educated assessment.

Even the the BBC which is usually better than the rest has adopted an anti
Russian flavor.

Now enter our National Public Radio.

This reads like something from a professional reporter...and not a hand out.

NPR better watch its back in Ukraine.

What do you expect from a conflict where both sides came out of the former Soviet Union? Try reading Pravda or Russia Today if you want to see some unvarnished propaganda, Soviet style.

I also include them in "outlets".
