RT channel denied accreditation in the US Congress

The Russian TV channel RT is deprived of accreditation in the US Congress due to the fact that it is registered as a foreign agent, reports TASS a message from the head of the Executive Committee of radio and television correspondents at the US Congress, Craig Kaplan.

The executive committee voted unanimously on November 21 to revoke accreditation from RT correspondents. This step was taken due to the fact that T&R Productions, LLC (T&R) serving the US branch of RT is registered as a foreign agent in the United States,

says Kaplan’s statement.

It is noted that "upon registration, as announced by the US Department of Justice on November 13, it was indicated that T&R is an agent of a legal entity created by the Russian government to distribute RT television programs around the world."

The decision to withdraw accreditation takes effect immediately.

The rules of the Congress’s press gallery clearly state that accreditation cannot be granted to anyone working for the foreign government or its representatives. After registering as a foreign agent, as required by the US Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), RT has lost the right for journalistic accreditation,

says a spread document.

Kaplan also demanded that the correspondents of RT return all permanent passes issued to them to the Congress building.

RT Editor-in-Chief Margarita Simonyan on November 9 said that the US Department of Justice "did not leave (to the channel) a choice."

Lawyers say that if we do not register as a foreign agent, the head of a company in America can be arrested, company accounts can be arrested, in general, the company will not be able to work in such a situation. Between such consequences and registration as an agent, we are forced to choose registration, although, of course, we strongly disagree with this requirement,

said Simonyan.

I really hope that the answer will be a mirror.

It's time to move on at least to retaliatory actions suffered from inaction.

There will be no mirror actions. Based on what?
RT actually voluntarily (albeit forcedly) registered itself as a foreign agent. A congress is prohibited to a foreign agent. Everything seems democratically.
More puffed up that they would rather leave or sit down (and generally die heroes) than register as an agent. More puffed up that American media would ban in Russia.
Everything is as usual. Terpils endure, and the gopota bends.

And who will harness for the media if they haven’t harnessed for diplomats ...
Russia is increasingly becoming an isolated outcast who can be kicked with impunity for false accusations or even without charges, just kicked. All the same, they will not answer with anything.

Simonyan did not want to become the new Asange. No bells.

The lousy thing is that RT knew the consequences and yet it was signed allegedly by a foreign agent! It was necessary for RT to leave the United States and at the same time mirror out some reputable American media company from Russia. And do not pull the Russian Foreign Ministry, as always, time is "rubber"!
Still, the Russian Foreign Ministry and the Russian government are not working well in the information and political field declared to us by the United States and the Collective West of World War III!

It's time to move from mirror reflections to reality ... It’s time to open our eyes and understand why those responsible for the collapse of the Russian economy continue to be on posts and give advice ... Understand why the enemies of our enemies are not friends at all ... It's time to think about how much more time is needed to finally equip Russia (or ditch Russia ??? or arrange the future of their offspring abroad?)
There will be no mirror answer for you, no answer at all. Chew snot and leave everything, like our athletes, to the will of God ... These are not Russian people, this is not our power, because under real Russian power, Prokhorov and Abramovich cannot be called Russian businessmen, like the scum that lives abroad for money stolen in hard times.

And where is the guarantee that the PSs have not heard this chip, that we are doing everything contrary to expectations, and now they are not guided by this principle. Well, that is the irony. But seriously, I have double feelings for this situation. On the one hand, I would very much like our side to "harness" faster and hit harder. They have already gotten ridicule of our Olympians, Paralympics, diplomats, IT-specialists, and now they are also journalists. They didn’t invite us to the Olympiad - an alternative in Moscow to stir up, as in 1980. They didn’t let us in Farnborough - at the same time open their air show and give all participants discounts of 10%. Evicted diplomats - all the s-owls in 24 hours on foot erotic tour. RT was shut down - all Western media from Russia are a filthy broom on ... We itch for a long time. One gets the impression that not everyone in the country's leadership has steel ... Someone they just painted silver. Well, on the other hand, it is possible that such emotional steps are expected from us. If you react instantly (well, that's me, as a conspiracy version), then it is likely that cause and effect will be interchanged. Simply put, our actions will be covered in a wide audience earlier than theirs, supposedly counteraction.

[Chertt]

All of you write correctly, and you yourself see how many questions, assumptions and contradictions exist. So it is necessary to “soak in the toilet”, without this there will be no respect for anyone. But let’s wait for the bomb to shine. A lot of what we passed in the 90s. Not ready yet

Well, a bomb is an extreme measure. Definitely wait. It is necessary to begin with the return of the members and members of the government and the oligarchy to the pro-Russian channel. A high official cannot make important decisions in the interests of his state when his children study or have permanent residence over the hill. And their main savings, acquired by overwork, lie in the same place there.

But you know, there are some tips on how to behave when attacked by a bear: pretend to be dead, not meet his eyes, avoid sudden movements and do not move and various others. In our case, the opposite is happening. Before the bear they stand on their heads, make noise, jump, attack, show aggression, and the bear lies, and according to your advice should pretend to be dead.

[Chertt]

Well, as I understand it, there will be no argumentation, no thoughts or suggestions, only negative emotions and funny emoticons ..... "Sad girls"

Well, well ... Thanks to the US Congress for:
1) Show the whole world what it means "Freedom of Speech in American"
2) What made it the first and Grew. authorities will only need to take retaliatory measures
3) For the fact that in general they began a similar fight with INOSMI because in Russia (there are) INOSMI much more than in the USA in which only RT and Sputnik work. They give us the go-ahead, more precisely, they legitimize them to clean the Augean stables of Russian television and radio, and even the "Internet" in general ...
Deprivation of accreditation for access to the US Congress is only the first (although not the first sign) expect RT and Sputnik to be banned in the USA altogether -Well, you are a foreign agent -There will be an excuse.

I’d like to ask Gazprom on the basis of what he sponsors Ekhi and Rains ...

P.S. And yes, if someone tries to voice that our (Russian) liberal public, in contrast to the US public, which turns into a totalitarian "Scoop", continues to adhere to true values: Freedom of speech, principles of democracy, integrity, upholding human rights ... Remember how Russian liberals Suddenly they forgot about the fate of Belykh and Pavlensky, throwing them out of their media space as a used p ... c.

[RASKAT]

But what about freedom of speech?
All this is a hypocritical box; American propaganda will not tolerate even the slightest competition on its territory. Will crush the truth and alternative opinion by any means. This is an extra lesson to us, what friends they are to us, and what they think of us all.

I hope ours will not mumble about freedom of speech either. And they will answer oooh very mirrored. It seems that the era of hypocrisy is over and the "superhuman" from the "supernation" grinning a smile behind a mask will no longer hide.

The Russian television channel RT is deprived of accreditation in the US Congress due to the fact that it is registered as a foreign agent, Craig Kaplan, head of the Congressional Executive Committee of Radio and Television at the US Congress, reports to TASS.

Well, that no one still notices the TU "electrical tape"?
The answer is quick and tough, and for each of their hostile attacks, only this will make them want not to isolate, but to negotiate.

So it should be. For the time being Russia will wipe itself off with "mirror answers."

[protoss]

generally deeply do not care for RT and the Simonyans, tryndyat on all channels about it for weeks. and about our "mirror measures" are also already tired. what is the difference to us on their accreditation, reporting, status, etc.? this is their internal working moments, in other sectors also dofig of licenses, permits, declarations and other bureaucracy, but they don’t complain about it to us every day from the TV set.

In no case can one deprive Western correspondents of accreditation. Just put a few conditions.

For example:
1. Do not move more than 1,5 km from the editorial office
2. Have a permit to move with the equipment, and for each unit of equipment a separate, short-term permit with a issuance time of 2 weeks.
3. Permits to issue in various institutions. For example, on microphones at point A (in a live queue, provided that the microphones comply with the specifications adopted by this organization), on cameras - elsewhere. At point B. On radio transmitting devices - at point B. well, etc.
4. Interviews should be taken exclusively in the language used in Russia. For example, in the Crimean Tatar, and even better in the language of small nationalities, for example Tofolars.
5. The interview should last no more than, for example, 2 minutes (including an answer). And we know how to mumble in response very well. All these EEEE, well, so to speak and so on.

Failure to comply with all these conditions leads to the deprivation of accreditation of a journalist.
If you want, oh, how can you drink blood and spoil the mood of this whole writing fraternity. And what? There are no direct prohibitions. They are not forbidden to interview, in particular - well, I'm sorry, in particular they are for that and particular. Maybe the interviewee does not understand Russian or English, but speaks the Crimean Tatar language
It is clear, of course, that this is a joke, but each joke has a share ... you yourself know what. Nothing prevents complicating the life of foreign correspondents nitpicking
