American anchor quits Russian-funded TV network over Putin coverage
http://j.mp/1fIWdLs (PBS Nebraska)
Liz Wahl, an anchor and correspondent for the Russian
government-funded television network, RT - formerly known as "Russia
Today" - announced her resignation during a live broadcast Wednesday.
Wahl, who works for RT's Washington bureau, said she could not be part
of a "network funded by the Russian government which whitewashes the
actions of [Russian president Vladimir] Putin."

I've been critical of "RT" all along, as you probably know.
