The Real News Network interview between Aaron Mate and Guardian reporter Luke Harding about Russiagate and Harding's book on alleged Russian collusion.
HN mostly uses it as a reference for a skeptical take on Russiagate media coverage, and some link it to give context on the reporter.

The kind of "journalist" Luke Harding is was brutally exposed by Aaron Mate by simply repeatedly asking him for evidence for his claims when Harding was flogging a conspiracy theory book. Nothing more than that reduced him to powder. It's an amazing thing to watch: ▶ this video I have no idea how this guy Harding is employed by the guardian, or indeed anyone or ever was. Obviously not a competent journalist, what he is... I'd never heard of Mate before seeing this, Mate just gives him rope and let's him do it to himself. That's the guy the Guardian had doing hatchet jobs on Assange when he was getting more death threats every day than every guardian journalist ever put together has received. [1] [1] I have no evidence of this. But it seems a lot more plausible than the Guardian's hatchet jobs. Where is Alan Rusbridger nowadays? He was editor back then. Ah, wikipedia says principal of an Oxford college. When not appearing in cameo perfomances of movie versions of Luke Harding's hatchet jobs on Snowden. Must be where he thinks he's best speaking truth to power nowadays. He may be right.
link link I'd recommend you watch this[1] interview with the author of that article as well, for some context as to who he is. 1 - ▶ this video
"Collusion" was so central to Russiagaters that the buffoonish Luke Harding even named his silly book that: link . (To see how buffoonish, ▶ this video )
