Liz Wahl (born 1985) is an American journalist.〔〔〔〔〔 She was born at Subic Naval Base〔 in the Philippines to a Filipina mother and an American father of Hungarian descent. She was raised in Connecticut. She graduated from Fairfield University. Her paternal grandparents were refugees from Hungary, who fled the on-coming Soviet invasion during the Hungarian Uprising.〔〔 Wahl cited her grandparents' experience as a factor in her public denunciation of RT and the network's coverage of Russian military intervention in Ukraine.〔 Wahl worked at the United States branch of RT for over two years. ==Resignation from RT America== On March 5, 2014, Wahl went off script, during her live segment, and resigned her job while denouncing her employer RT for its allegedly distorted coverage of Russia's intervention in the Crimea. She also claimed that RT censored her interview with Ron Paul on the day she resigned. Ron Paul himself denied any censorship.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Russia Coverage: RT, Liz Wahl and Media Bias )〕 RT America responded by calling Liz Wahl's actions "Nothing more than a self-promotional stunt."〔(RT reacts to anchor Liz Wahl quitting on air | 06.03.2014 )〕 Video of Wahl's resignation quickly went viral on the internet, with millions of hits on YouTube. She appeared on three major American cable news outlets - CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC - was also invited to appear on ''The View'', and the shows of Anderson Cooper, and Stephen Colbert〔〔 for additional interviews. Barbara Walters initially voiced criticism of Wahl, saying she should not be treated like a hero,〔〔 but has since recanted and praised Wahl's efforts.〔 ''Politico'' published Wahl's tell-all firsthand story detailing her early career, how she was recruited to RT, her frustrations working for the Russian-funded network, and her resignation.〔〔 In July 2014, reporter Sara Firth from RT's London Bureau resigned for nearly identical reasons that Wahl had done.〔("Ex-RT Reporter Slams Network: You Can End Up 'Swallowing Yourself in Conspiracy Theories'" | Mediaite / CNN | July 20th, 2014 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Liz Wahl」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
