Syria_ media dangerous as a rifle

Turkey insists its military jet shot down by Syrian forces on Friday wasn't spying - but was on a training flight. The incident adds to the pressure piled up on Damascus - as NATO is now going to look into what happened. Syria maintains it was just protecting its sovereignty - as the plane crossed into its territory - by mistake, according to Turkey, which is a NATO member. RT's Maria Finoshina, who's in Damascus, reports on how media is turning into yet another tool of war, sometimes just as dangerous as a rifle.
