Oh dear.
Well, are you reading what non-Russian media are writing about him?

" Russian Opposition Leader Alexei Navalny: Uniting Nationalists and the Urban, Educated Middle Class "

" How Alexey Navalny is changing Putin's Russia "

" Russian protest hero Alexei Navalny presses on with anti-corruption efforts against oil firm "


There is a serious gap between what the Russians here are saying about Navalny and how he is presented in Western media.

I choose to believe the Russians at MR.

But this is like a case study for a Media in Politics class... What the h-ck is going on?

And meanwhile, according to RT.com:

" December was an Information War Against Russia "
