American anchor on Russian TV resigns on-air over government’s actions in Ukraine
The Kremlin has a rebellion on its hands — if only from within its own TV network. For the second time in three days, an anchor on RT, the global television network funded by the nation’s government, has harshly criticized Russia’s aggressive response to the crisis in Ukraine. This time, the RT anchor backed up her words by resigning on the air. Liz Wahl, a Washington-based American anchor for RT, announced her resignation during a broadcast Wednesday. Wahl made her announcement during an update about the standoff between Russian military forces in southern Ukraine and Ukraine’s new government.
Daily Mail: Russia Today news presenter Abby Martin said country was 'wrong'
Brave, strong, principled...etc. It seems to us that that there is another possibility here - these two American ladies may have been sleeper agents working for...let's say the CIA. Their moment had come: bad-mouth Russia as part of the vicious western media campaign. At any rate, they're finished. Liz Wahl's going back to the 'United Stasi of America' and Abbey Martin...who knows? They'll keep an eye on her from now on that's for sure. She won't get to be doing this stunt twice. Anyway, this thing will calm down soon - memory in the news is short. - Editor
