<\/p>\n From “the things you can run over on Twitter file”: Straight from the progressives, this is pretty funny stuff and makes for a good grin on a Friday.<\/p>\n WABE News @WABENews<\/a>, an Atlanta NPR affiliate, by our judgment it\u2019s further left than NPR itself – and far less balanced<\/a> – ran a story the other day about a very far left Atlanta activist, Anoa Changa @TheWayWithAnona<\/a>,\u00a0who apparently spreads the progressive message on the Russian-funded Sputnik radio.<\/p>\n The WABE reporter, Johnny Kaufman explains Sputnik radio for the unaware:<\/p>\n \u201cA report released in January by the FBI, National Security Agency and CIA called Sputnik and the TV network RT, formerly Russia Today, part of \u201cRussia\u2019s state-run propaganda machine.\u201d<\/p>\n The report titled, \u201cAssessing Russian Activities and Intentions in US Elections\u201d links Sputnik to Russia\u2019s broader efforts to influence the 2016 election, noting it served as \u201ca platform for Kremlin messaging to Russian and international audiences.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThose platforms are set up for the sole purpose of promoting the Kremlin line,\u201d said Robert Orttung, an associate research professor of international affairs at The George Washington University.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n It\u2019s not that activist Changa denies using the Russian radio outlet and Kaufman tells us \u201cChanga doesn\u2019t plan to stop appearing on Sputnik programs.<\/p>\n The two shows where she\u2019s a regular, \u201cBy Any Means Necessary\u201d and \u201cLoud & Clear,\u201d are a place where she\u2019s comfortable talking about issues important to her, like police brutality, voter suppression and corporate influence in the Democratic Party. The shows, Changa said, are independent. She trusts their hosts and producers.<\/p>\n \u201cIf there\u2019s a space available to occupy and get that voice across,\u201d said Changa, \u201cthen we should take it.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n You can read the entire story here.<\/a><\/p>\n But, leftist supporters of Changa \u2013 members of the Metro Atlanta Democratic Socialists @MetroAtlDSA<\/a> no less \u2013 are having a major cow over the report<\/a> and are in their third day of attacking the leftist NPR station for\u2026wait, wait, wait \u201cthe racist hit piece.\u201d<\/p>\n Comrade Changa you see, is a black woman.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/wabbe-1.jpg\")
