    Having access to RT (the Russian channel) it is bizarre to hear and see two absolute opposite views on the same situation being presented.

    Also locally there are questions being asked about how quickly the US forgets about their own Monroe Doctrine and their 'invasions' of Panama and Grenada.

    Some push back from American hosts on RT:

    Russia Today news anchor Liz Wahl resigns live on air over Ukraine crisis

    Veering off script, Wahl said: "I cannot be part of a network funded by the Russian government that whitewashes the actions of Putin. I'm proud to be an American and believe in disseminating the truth, and that is why, after this newscast, I'm resigning."
    Aslo:

    Russia Today Host Abby Martin Goes Spectacularly Off-Message In Ukraine Broadcast

    Pacing the Washington studio, Martin continued: "Just because I work here, for RT, doesn't mean I don't have editorial independence and I can't stress enough how strongly I am against any military intervention in sovereign nations' affairs. What Russia did is wrong."
