RT is without question the worst news channel on the airways.. Even leaving aside the comedy accents. The station is geared at a USA audience, as evidenced by the plethora of items about that country, and an absence of virtually any analysis of Russian politics.
Their news bulletins are interspersed with cheap propaganda, backed up by the opinions of conspriacy theorists and rarely do you see a report which attempts genuinely to inform. Their agenda is to "promote Russia" and ironically, they do this rather well with their travelogue-style documentaries about different regions of the country. You have to wonder, however, about a station which spends a lot of its time promoting Moscow entertainment and nightlife
The station's self-styled motto is "question more", but that's pretty rich coming from a station in a country where journalism is a genuinely life-threatening occupation. The "question" I frequently ask more and more is "how on earth can anyone take it seriously"
