Good points: Historically keeps the facts from the fiction separate, is quite independent in its assertions and does not take sides. Calls the Armenian Genocide a Genocide, with international documentations presented. About the Soviet Union era talks about BOTH good and bad, about the newly independent Russia talks about the corruption and opression of Journalists.
Bad Points: The economic crisis and privatization process of 1990s was not very clearly written about. Too much place was given to Gossip about the political atmosphere, leaders and Soviet Republics, as well as later period of independence. The Azerbaijani side of the Nagorno-Karabagh was better represented and unfounded facts about the Aliyev decree were lengthly written about, even though it was mantioned that the facts were unfouneded and held no truth to them.
