March 18 (UPI) -- Russian leaders called Saturday for an investigation into some U.S. media outlets to determine if they are operating within the country's laws.
Russia's state Duma, or the lower house of parliament, called on its Committee for Information Policy, Information Technologies and Communications to review the activities of several news organizations including Radio Liberty, Voice of America and CNN. The move comes in response to a U.S. initiative to investigate possible Russian media interference in U.S. affairs.
