Censorship of Russia Euronews

There a wmv, pics? Since the translation of what Blair said was left blank...perhaps the BFCers could fill in the gap left by Russian's not wanting whoever to hear what PM Blair said.

Two editors of the website portal hro.org noticed that the Russian version
of Euronews unexpectedly cut short translation into Russian of Tony Blair's
speech on October 4th. He was speaking about the situation in Chechnya at a
press-conference to mark the end of the Russia - EU summit in London.

This isn't the first time that the Russian edition of Euronews has blocked
information, notes hro.org, and reminds us that the government-owned Russian
telecommunications company bought a large block of shares in Euronews.

So I'll meet up with that Russian, that Brazillian, the rest of the team from Brooklyn..and we'll start shooting.
