The Guardian’s latest hatchet job on RT indicts the channel on the basis of it outspending (and admittedly outgunning) the BBC’s international radio service.
The article below was submitted to The Guardian to be published in its “Comment is Free” opinion section as a response to the newspaper’s latest, largely unsubstantiated, piece about RT. So far The Guardian has not published RT’s response.
Evidently The Guardian has developed an obsession with our channel, publishing over a dozen articles directly or indirectly about RT in a month-and-a-half.
The latest hit-piece disguises itself as broadly addressing publicly-funded broadcasters from Russia and China, yet there are no concrete facts or figures mentioned about any organization, other than RT. According to the Guardian, RT is coming to get you. And it has piles of cash to do it with. How can the impoverished BBC even think about competing? No wonder it's “losing the information war.”
