The Feinberg-story is rattling Russia / RT / Sputnik News. It's easy to tell:

Because they are not reporting on this. They thrive on outrage, on complaining, on demonizing anybody and anything that can be perceived as anti-russian or anti-Trump.
Rumors, manufactured outrages, half-truths, baseless sensationalism... But now... Odd silence.



The FBI is investigating whether Sputnik News disseminated propaganda during the 2016-election. They interviewed the ex-Sputnik-journalist Feinberg who accuses Sputnik of being a russian propaganda-outlet. Feinberg also gave internal emails of Sputnik News to the FBI.

RT does not report on this at all.

Sputnik News has two short articles, but only in the german edition... And none of them mentions who Feinberg actually is. And one of the articles hints that the FBI somehow stole the emails.

I thought they’d let me be a real journalist at Sputnik news. I was wrong.
