RTR COMING TO AMERICA :lol:

Russia's largest TV network, the state-run RTR, is coming to the United States with a Russian-language TV channel. New York City, home of the largest Russian immigrant community in the United States, will account for a significant portion of the channel's audience. RTR, the largest television company in the Russian Federation, teamed up with the U.S.-based Russian Media Group to launch the new Russian channel, called "RTR Planeta". Head of the Media Group, Mark Golub, says the channel will reach at least a third of the three million Russian-speakers currently living in the United States. With its 89 affiliated stations, RTR reaches audiences across Russia.
