Russian Journalists Ordered to Portray USA As the Enemy

Russian journalists have a ways to go to catch up to their Western colleagues. They still need to be told to portray the USA as the enemy, as employees of the Russian News Service recently were by their new managers, who are pals of strongman Vladimir Putin.
Journalists were also told that at least 50% of news about Russia must be positive. Lucky thing American journalists aren't asked to think of positive things to say about their country. At least it would make for shorter newscasts.
Tightening his grip.
On a tip from Eoin.
