  The House Foreign Affairs Committee on Wednesday hammered RT and other Russian media outlets, claiming they are part of a dangerous “weaponization of information” directed by the Kremlin. Questioning several witnesses, including an ex-RT employee, about how to best combat the perceived threat with the US’ own $750million Broadcasting Board of Governors, the panel of Representatives was conspicuously silent on the American efforts to distort information.
