A NPR Journalist was recently in Moscow and asked via email for a Russia Today interview for NPR....

This is actually the response she received from RT.....

Dear Mary Louise Kelly,
Thank you for your request to meet. We have been informed, via our red phone straight to the Kremlin, that the officers who have tracked you since you landed sense that your mind is already made-up on this issue, and so meeting to discuss the baseless accusations made against RT would be fruitless. We politely refer you to the man in the blacked-out Volga parked outside your hotel for further explanation.
Best regards,
RT Press Office
