I thought he was like one of the most important whistleblowers of our time exposing war crimes and shit. Some of you don’t wanna see him live another day, why is that?

      You’re full of it. From the time they were founded, they operated in the same building as RIA Novosti. RT didn’t exist until AFTER the various independent journalists and their associations were ALREADY being rounded up and cast out of Russian society.

      They are now and have always been state-controlled. Stop apologizing for dictatorships.

          RT was founded in 2005.

          By 2008 they were parroting clearly-bullshit Russian talking points about Georgia in the 2008 war.

          World Tomorrow aired in 2012.

          You. Are. Full. Of. It.

          You’re too used to people making attacks. That’s not what I was trying to do. I was asking questions. I don’t know how much of RTs funding comes from the state, and I don’t even know if they run commercials.

          I don’t know how RT is funded, and I’ve never watched it.
