More Russia Today journalists quit in the wake of the incident. Sara Firth is the latest in a long series of resignations at the troubled "news' outlet. She quit because she was repeatedly asked to lie.
Quote:
RT style guide Rule 1: It is ALWAYS *Ukraine's fault (*add name as applicable). We do work for Putin. We are asked on a daily basis if not to totally ignore then to obscure the truth.
I resigned from RT today. I have huge respect for many in the team, but I'm for the truth. I couldn’t do it any more, we’re lying every single day. Every single day we’re lying and finding sexier ways to do it.
