Russia-1 is Russia’s largest national channel, with a claimed audience of 117 million, and is also broadcast in Europe, the Middle East, and the U.S. So, this marks Ray’s widest exposure yet, but only if you understand Russian! He originally was asked if he would do the interview in Russian and he wishes he had, given the awkward hiatus for translation.
See any irony in the fact that only the Russians have earmarked time on national TV for Ray or other critics of NSA overreach? The show is called “Special Correspondent.” Ray is on from 46.20 till 53.55. Beneath the Russian voice-over a good bit of what Ray says in English can be heard.
