It is getting harder these days for former World Champion Garry Kasparov to get any respect inside mother Russia. Once voted the 2nd least popular person in Russia, Garry has atleast managed to avoid being publically ridiculed by either the top Russian leaders of the day or the Russian democratic media.
No more it seems! The gloves have come off and Kasparov is now a target by the Russian media. Witness what Pravda had to say today.
Kasparov: From the Sublime To the Ridiculous
''Whenever an international news outlet allows Gary Kasparov space to air his views, it is a sign this same outlet has been “had” big time by a self-promoting bigot whose only objective in life is to publicise himself, whether through flights of fantasy, or the first stages of Alzheimer’s or else sheer and unadulterated egomania. The victims are the fools who give him time and space.''
