"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.

You wouldn't want her near you. The radioactive food Putin will be sending her would probably kill you too.

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.

That didn't take long. Wahl, who is Washington D.C. based not Moscow based by the way, was just on MSNBC talking about her resignation how proud she is to be an American. I predict she will have her next gig within two weeks.

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

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.

If more did this, we'd only be left with Fox news....

You can't be serious. FOX News spews more agenda-driven propaganda than any other network in America. Jesus Christ!

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.

This board never fails to entertain.
ETA: However, there is some truth in what you say. That's because those on FOX appear too fricking stupid to know that the shite they're spewing couldn't be further from the truth.
So, in that regard, you are correct sir.
