Fort Russ News is the media wing of the Belgrade based NGO, the Center for Syncretic Studies. Fort Russ News is a popular news portal – reaching more than 100,000 readers a day – with a focus primarily on the ‘world-island’ of Eurasia. Founded at the end of 2014, we are 100% independent.
We are not a state-run agency of any kind, nor is our editorial policy ‘swayed’ as a result of grants from NGO’s, ‘charities’, or large trusts. With 3 million readers a month, we have often featured ‘uncomfortable truths’ which ‘mainstream’ Kremlin backed sources like RT and Sputnik were unable to. We gave the raw story to readers before RT and Sputnik found the right angle to couch it in. As a result, many of our features and breaking stories have been featured by both of these outlets later on.
All media organizations are reporting from their own world view. Some call this political alignment, some editorial leaning and, and some media bias. We call them Narratives.
Sites are mainly from smaller countries around the world and are usually opposing the Western Coalition. They are mixed whether supporting the local Establishment and are usually promoting either a government, pro-independence movement, or a certain party in an ongoing armed conflict.
We’ve done research on who owns or funds the site so you can learn easier about possible funding bias or conflicts of interests.
owner is a person, a company or an organization which hasn’t received outside funding
The reason we show relations to CFR, Bilderberg, Trilateral Commission and Chatham House is because there was a study made by Swiss Propaganda Research. They found out that many western news media have relations to those organizations.
