A TV news anchor quit live on air over her channel's stand on Russia's invasion of Crimea. Liz Wahl, a Russia Today (RT) anchor, accused the channel of misrepresenting the crisis. She was also critical of Russian president Vladimir Putin.
"Personally I cannot be part of a network funded by the Russian government that whitewashes the actions of Putin," Wahl said on live TV. "I'm proud to be an American and believe in disseminating the truth, and that is why, after this newscast, I am resigning."
