Russia Today, explains its roguish appeal to unsuspecting Americans:

"But lots of Americans like what they are hearing. Ms Simonyan says independent 
surveys show that among Washington DC viewers, more than six times as many 
people choose to tune into RT than to Al Jazeera English - and these are 
figures for 2009 - before the channel even began its dedicated US-only 
broadcasts." from The Independent

wow... six times more nutty than Al Jazeera, that's an image builder!  Fail.

well... it's still a less humiliating story than the Russian Academy of 
Science's "Squirrel Institute", sigh.  can't make this stuff up, see:
