The censorship of the RT channels in German, RT DE and DFP, means that all the material, documentary interviews, research papers, among others, is no longer available. According to Tubular Labs, a world leader in social intelligence and measurement, the RT DE channel had more than 600,000 subscribers and almost 547 million visits in total.
The main channel, RT DE, had been suspended days ago for alleged violations of community rules, reported the director of the RT group, Margarita Simonián. Later, a YouTube representative explained that the material posted on the secondary channel had violated the warning previously made to RT DE and as a result both channels were removed.
This measure shows the true face of the technological emporiums that are usually presented as authentic spaces of democracy, plurality and inclusion. However, after the Russia-Ukraine conflict, they have silenced the media and favored the hegemonic machinery. All this as part of a media war against Russia.
Some journalists show their discontent with different digital platforms:
“They can no longer find us on that platform. As if we never existed, as if these two years of life and work and effort of various people never existed. Everything to the trash in one click. And more than a million followers to whom no one has consulted her opinion, “journalist Inna Afinogenova reported on her Telegram channel.”
«YouTube stole 5 and a half years of reports and interviews I did for, RT The most important: the Interview with Thierry Meyssan with 1 million views on the situation of #Venezuela in 2017 and a 25-minute conversation with the late General Jacinto Pérez Arcay.” Dissemination on Twitter by the Venezuelan journalist Erika Ortega Sanoja.
