A pot calls the kettle black

Mr. Reichelt is one of the best known editors in Germany.
Now he is calling RT a "propaganda mouthpiece" and a "public disgrace" to journalism.
Funny, that's exactly what we've repeatedly said about his publication.
This whole thing got started when we wrote a piece a couple weeks ago criticizing the transparent lying of one of his correspondents, Julian Roepcke, entitled: "A great example of the crazy propaganda coming out of the German media"
We've written about Roepcke before. At the end of November he was churning out crude propaganda about the shootdown of Russian plane by Turkey, and the subsequent grisly murder of the surrendering Russian pilot.
The man is either a psychopath or drawing a paycheck from the Pentagon, we can't quite figure which.
Then RT send Roepcke an inquiry, and well, then things got really interesting, see for yourself:
Mr. Reichelt is a poster boy for the arrogance and stupidity of the German media.
Apparently Germans agree. They are abandoning his publication in droves.
