Polls that are carried out in questionable conditions. In an area that is actively occupied by a foreign aggressor. The same foreign aggressor that has, in the past, paid the reporter in question.
No shit his interviews line up with the party line. If they didn't, he wouldn't be there.

Occupied by a foreign aggressor! ooooooo sounds menacing
Did they drive up from the military base they were renting after the Parliament voted to join Russia? or were they parachuted in to menace anyone who resisted!?

Pfft, when's the last time you saw a balanced report on Ukraine and the events that led to this in ANY of the media here in Aus?
Your idea of State sponsored media is blinkered to fit your narrative. You haven't been able to disprove one single thing in the Graham Phillips video's I posted yet we've debunked story after story after story that the Ukrainian regime has spoon fed western media and 'believers' like yourself don't question, you'd rather shoot the messenger.

I have disproven the legitimacy of Graham Phillips, and that point has once again gone over you.
A balanced report? What do you mean by that?
Because a neutrality bias is providing a platform to disproven ideas and presenting them as equally honorable to ones that actually do have substantial backing and evidence.
You don't just hear both sides and leave it at that. We can have a discussion about the narrative that each side has on the issue, and once both narratives have been provided it's okay to reject the false one because to not do that is to uphold a neutrality bias and hold equal platform to both narratives.

You haven't shown he wasn't objective while working for RT.
You can't find any examples of RT.com lying, yet you believe anyone working for them can't be objective. 
Stop claiming nobody has found any lies from RT, someone gave you a whole list of lies from RT that you never responded to.
Before you ask, you know exactly what I'm talking about, look it up yourself.

I saw the list, but none of those were shown to be lies. Here is a discussion about one, for example.

No different than Falcon or Stable, no matter their claims of unbiased or what have you, they will twist anything to portray Russia in a favorable light. War crimes? Torture? Disappearing opposition? Killing dissenters? ALL OK TO THESE CLOWNS

No, war crimes, torture, and disappearing opposition are not ok. Lying about them is not ok either. It often appears that I'm defending Russia, Syria, or Iran by exposing lies told about them, but that doen't mean I like those countries, just that I think we should tell the truth about them.

That hasn't been established at all. Writing for RT doesn't make one an untrustworthy source.

It's all the same. Once you dig into it, none of them turn out to be lies. Don't believe me? Pick your favorite lie from RT and let's have a discussion about it.
By the way, I've never claimed RT has never lied. I claimed no one here has ever found an example of it.

My favorite lie? You were given a list already that you haven't disproven, why do you keep avoiding those? You said you dug into it? Let's see your evidence.

Considering you still haven't gotten through the list you've been given you can't honestly say that. Stop lying.

In a lot of cases, if a journalist works for a company they have to stay within the bounds of the opinions of their advertisers.
For legacy media it is that healthcare is not a right, pharmaceuticals need to be price gouged, donations aren't bribery, there's always money for expanding the military, tax cuts for the richest among us will trickle down, de-regulation is always good etc.

Generally there is a lot of context and nuance that limits the interpretations, often there is hard evidence and recorded historical activities of those parties involved.
