So your argument is that a foreign propaganda entity is preferable to a domestic intelligence agency?

Yes? I hope it's not controversial to say that doing business with a television network is fundamentally different from cooperating with an intelligence agency.

Referring to RT as "a television network" is as accurate as saying that Mar-a-Lago is "a privately-owned club". Technically accurate, but knowingly misleading (attempts to present as "irrelevant" what is actually the most relevant bit of information about said TV network/ private club)
