*[[File:RT.png]] '''Russia Today''' - RT, short for its former name Russia Today, was launched in 2005 by the Russian government via RIA Novosti. As it is targeted at international viewers rather than Russians at home, it mainly competes against the likes of CNN International, BBC News, and Al Jazeera. In addition to the original English channel, RT also operates channels in Spanish, French, German, and Arabic. Unlike [[File:TsargradTV.png]] Tsargrad TV which generally is targeted at right-wing audiences, [[File:RT.png]]RT is generally targeted at left-wing audiences.<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/12/business/rt-america-russian-tv.html</ref> It has been banned in Ukraine since 2014 in response to the invasion of Crimea and in the European Union, the UK, and Canda since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

*[[File:TsargradTV.png]] '''Tsargrad TV''' was launched in late 2015 by a Russian multi-millionaire '''Konstantin Malofeyev''', who allegedly made his fortune in capital investment and later through the stock buyback by Rostelecom, the Russian predominantly state-owned telecommunications operator and internet service provider. The channel was initially modelled after [[File:FoxNews.png]] Fox News, and Fox's former director John Hanick was its first producer and later the advisor of the general producer. Malofeyev himself is claimed to have connections with [[File:FSB.png]] Igor Girkin/Strelkov, the original leader of [[File:Cball-Novorossiya.png]] pro-Russian Donbass separatists in Ukraine and reportedly the former head of Malofeyev's security detail.
