I think they're just afraid of competition with their own right-wing puppet show, Fox and Friends.
DOHOHOHOHO!

Good on RT for calling out western media for their propaganda and false reporting of Russia, but isn't that a bit like the pot calling the kettle black?
Yep, both the pot and the kettle are black in this situation. Still, the clip appears to be genuine. The agenda of RT might be skewed, but their information in this case is not. Other sites are reporting the same info but not addressing it in the detail that the Russia Times article does. The only other thorough article on the subject that I have seen is the Atlantic Wire one here.
Note: I can independently confirm (being in Moscow right now and all) that no one is throwing Molotov cocktails at the police in the streets.

It's only fair for RT to decry the dishonest reporting of other news agencies, they have every right to do so, even if they do it themselves. Given the situation though, I'd trust your word over anyone else's.
For the record, Fox has also distorted reporting on the Occupy movement, so at least they are consistent when it comes to being wrong. Now that the shoe is on the other foot though, it's only fair to acknowledge that even Fox can get it right every now and again. That is to say, they are right in so far that they have neglected to falsify their reporting...

"...it's only fair to acknowledge that even Fox can get it right every now and again."
Is that kind of like, "Even a stopped clock is right twice a day?"

They're on military time so it's more like only once a day.

When are conservatives going to realize that creative people are liberal? It isnt that there's a liberal bias in Hollywood, or the music industry, or the the arts or whatever. Creatives are liberal, for the most part. Period. So every time they complain about Hollywood actors being liberal, or musicians being liberal, or documentary directors being liberal, I want to ask them, well get rid of the liberals and where will you be? I'll tell you where: shit movies, shit music and shit art.
So fucking deal with it and shut the hell up.
Precisely.
But are the Fox Network and Fox News part of the same organization?
Because, well, I'm still confused by the idea that Matt Groening works for Fox.
I picture a world of nothing but Jon Voight films. Now I'm sad.
