Reports from Simferopol, Crimea, indicate that the airport is being guarded by a local "People's Militia" rather than an invading Russian army. These volunteers claim they are there to prevent "radicals" and "fascists" from Kiev from entering the region. This on-the-ground reality is contrasted with Western media reports of "attack helicopters" and "armed insurrections" which the hosts label as bogus.

Approximately 60% of the two million residents in the region are Russian speakers who feel unprotected by the current Ukrainian leadership.
