Russian bots with Western funding and influence. The internet as we know it is going to look very different in 25 years thanks to all this in my opinion.

So, right after the best show on TV is over (Y&R), I figured I'd switch on the ATV News Live at 5 - you know - Russia and Ukraine - Portapique - Covid mandates lifting - and the lead story is "He's Back - Matt Anderson - with a heartbreaking new single. . ."
That ain't fukkin' news! Holey Fukk!
Like - even telling us that there was a hit and run up on Citadel Hill and somebody got rear-ended would be more newsworthy than that!

And this isn't a recent change it's been that way for the 35 years or so I can remember. And on top of that...the headlines of "whats on tonight" was led with a Matt Anderson snippet but that piece wasn't even on until the nightly entertainment portion. The show led off with how Maritimes were supporting Ukrainians with Nick Moore in Saint John talking to a florist from the Ukraine donating money back to the Ukraine and talking about the Syrian chocolate company founder about how they're giving back. After that piece they went to Todd Battis and what was coming up at 6 where he mentioned Portapique inquiry, Russia/Ukraine, and whatever the hell happened to that cyber nb company. So community interest stories and weather and news at 6...like the last 35 years lol

I gotta admit it - Live at 5 isn't so bad after all. I'm actually enjoying the weather forecast - if ya know what I'm sayin'. Insert thumping heart emoji here. . .

NHL cut ties with the KHL for scouting. I wonder if Russian players with junior ties will jump ship and join the CHL instead.

I believe that the CHL already makes it hard for any Russians not already in the CHL system - playing here already to now join a team. With their decision from last week.
The NHL decision means that the NHL no longer is adhering to its gentleman's agreement with the KHL. No longer respecting their contracts.
So on one hand CHL is turning pipe off of Russian talent and the NHL is opening the floodgates.
The difference in pay now with Ruble worth less than dirt makes NHL have an advantage signing Russians as free agents or just bringing them over and ignoring KHL deals for prospects.

Russian military killed a New York Times reporter even after he identified himself as a reporter.
It'll be interesting to see what they get Putin on for war crimes.

Sounds like Putin has a Guy coming for him as I post this . The Wagner Group...... A Mercenary Army who was working for Putin has turned on him and is leading a charge to Moscow . Did I hear that right that the Dude in charge of these guys ( Yezgheni Prigozhin ) was Putin's Personal Chef and Head Caterer ? ......That's quite a Career Change .

The latest says that he is turning away his troops from going to Moscow. Not sure where that leaves things.

He is heading to Belarus ........hope they didn't give him some Nukes to call off the March to Moscow . The Experts seem to think neither Putin or The Cook are long for this World anymore ..........We can only hope .
