To be honest I have never dived into the drama and don't read either of them. I'm just interested why they are hated so much in our circles, yet loved by the more right leaning ones.

"I’m just interested why they are hated so much in our circles, yet loved by the more right leaning ones."

Not just for RFA/RFE, but the usual answer to that is "because it is madeup bullshit". It is kind of why it has become a meme that any made-up story about communist states cites RFA as their source, if they cite anyone at all.

There's no attempt made to even pretend to be real news, they just want to target the folks who treat headlines as gospel.
