| Russian TV chief blames nymphs for retread 'Ukraine' footage |
| 2014-05-22 |
| Russian state television has found a scapegoat for mistakenly airing old footage of a corpse slain in the North Caucasus region, and suggested that it was a civilian killed by Kyiv's forces in eastern Ukraine. Commenting on a lengthy newscast that recently featured the retread footage, deputy All-Russia State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company chief Dmitry Kiselyov said that "young, nymph video technicians" were responsible. He said, "I haven't seen that report but what it had was an error. An error, but in no way a manipulation." State-owned broadcaster Rossia-1 aired the footage showing the splayed corpse of a man in an open field on May 16. The channel suggested he was a civilian victim killed by Ukrainians to intimidate pro-Russian separatists in the Donetsk region. However, it was quickly revealed that the footage was identical to a report by Rossia's sister channel about a counterterrorism operation carried out by Russian forces in the republic of Kabardino-Balkaria. Kiselyov said he was "sure there is an internal investigation of this matter going on" at Rossia-1. |
