Global news network RT has launched a dedicated British news channel. The new station, RT UK, is to challenge dominant power structures in Britain by broadcasting live and original programming with a progressive UK focus. RT UK will be available to more than 90 percent of UK households via Freeview (Channel 135), Sky (Channel 512) and Free Sat (Channel 206), Monday to Friday, 6pm to 11pm. Airing from its new London studios at Millbank, the channel will cover local, regional and national UK stories, focusing on issues that matter most to Britons. It will also cover a diverse spectrum of international news, examining the implications of major global developments for a British and international audience. (Sorry to those for whom this is obvious but some commenters seem to think RT is some kind of offshoot of the BBC. Its really, really not. Its Russia Today. Wont take them at their word as regards, say, Ukraine. But theyre more likely to be balanced as regards British news - and at the least give both sides an airing - than the BBC.)
