Journalist accused of being a British spy
A Russian journalist who stormed a state television broadcast in a daring anti-war protest has been accused of being a British spy. Marina Ovsyannikova, a long-time senior producer at Channel One, was subsequently detained and questioned for 14 hours. Kirill Kleymenov, deputy directorgeneral of Channel One and head of its news service, launched into a chilling tirade in a Sunday news show against Ovsyannikova, even suggesting the producer may have been recruited by British intelligence.
