For folks who don't know what happened to your show, can you give us a gloss?

Look, I was probably finished at RT anyway because I denounced,

but very publicly, the invasion of Ukraine for what it is, as a war crime, preemptive war

down. It wasn't because I was doing Russia propaganda. It's because with the 2017 Director of

National Intelligence report and those seven pages that were dedicated to RT, they were very

specific about why they hated RT. And it's because, and these are their words, you can read it
