in Time Magazine Gets it Correct on Timothy Post.com
In stark contrast to Time Magazine, NPR has been covering these events with the most miserable anti-Russian slant and egregious errors. For example, around 17:30 PST 8/13/2008, the host of the program I was listening to, who was trying to incite world war III, pressuring his guest, a Ukrainian chap by the name of Kulik (vsyak kulik svoyo boloto khvalit), to admit that Ukraine was somehow "next", charged that the Black Sea fleet was moored in Ukraine, in Yalta. It was never Yalta, it was Sevastopl' and, for the past few years, it has been Novorossisk, which is in Russia, but how many listeners actually discern things like this? Probably just a handful who actually have been to Novorossisk to look at the new facilities. Shame on NPR.

Regarding Novorossiysk the new facilities were in project, but at today's date all the "efforts" are on the updating of the commerical port with new equipment as heavy cranes.
For information mid-july 3 Nato vessels came to the port (German,Turkish, Greek) even the local navy fanfare came to welcome them as they use to do for all guests.
