"And that is why, personally, I cannot be part of a network funded by the Russian government that whitewashes the actions of Putin," Wahl said, referring to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

"I'm proud to be an American and believe in disseminating the truth," she added. "And that is why, after this newscast, I'm resigning."

As long as a Dem is in the WH, she will never get an interview at MSNBC.

Abby Martin also slammed RT News a few days ago, but I don't know how much courage it takes for an American to do something that will no doubt be parlayed into a gig at a much bigger American news network. These are great career moves for both Wahl and Martin.

I cant imagine a news network painting an opposition group as extreme, rightwing, and neo-nazi like......

What a coincidence. Wahl interviewed Ron Paul on her last day of work.

Good career move.

The risk seems larger than it actually is. That is, she probably wasn't getting anywhere on RT and figured that she'd pull this stunt to attract attention and get some news coverage. She'll probably now land a job with a bigger network with more opportunity.

Wait, media owned and controlled? I am shocked....shocked I tell you.

Am I the only one finding humor in CNN (or any other MSM network) running with this interview like they are above it all?

This is hysterical....the ultimate pot/kettle.
