Russia Today, I will point out, is an unofficial propaganda arm of the Russian government, which has previous for using journalistic cover to infiltrate intelligence assets into a country.
Also they've recruited "journalists" via Craig's List.
Also they once offered me a job, which I turned down on the basis that I don't like being censored by Vladimir Putin (and at the time I had better offers, which failed to pan out. Now I might actually consider such a position, if only to see how much censored news I could refer to in my articles before I got sacked).
That's not to say this move isn't entirely bullshit, only that there are grounds for suspicion of everyone's motives here, and Russia Today are not the pure as snow devoted to the truth news organization they like to pretend to be, and more like a Russian version of FOX.
