BB,

Never heard of RT news. Kind of like hearing that Al Jezeera is one of the better news sources internationally, although I read they were going through some problems recently. It would be refreshing to have a news source that was just news, kinda' like the Walter Cronkite era, instead of news as entertainment, folded around advertising commercials. Alas.

Be interesting to see how Russians view news. My few contacts with Russians revealed what I thought was a rather fatalistic world view. I can see how 75 years of communism could lead to that.
