In a similar vein, out of all YouTube channels both "impartial" international news agencies, like Reuters, and Russian | Ukraine YouTube channels, 98% of them have a bias in their reporting of the theatre.

The Unions are still very upset about it. So spare a thought folks. ;p
No doubt they'll get coverage on radio 1 / RTE news over the coming days for this draconian harsh measure in their myopic vision.
