      ab: The article discusses a newly released book that examines the Russian state-funded media organization, Russia Today (RT), and its role in the context of post-Soviet propaganda and information warfare. The multi-author volume addresses misconceptions about RT's structure, audience, and practices, while exploring broader themes such as the relationship between Russia and the Western liberal order, populism, and disinformation. The book employs a mixed-methods approach, including surveys of RT employees and users, and utilizes network analysis to understand RT's connections within Western conservative media. It is recommended as a valuable resource for academics, media researchers, and students interested in state-sponsored propaganda and disinformation, with the added benefit of being available as an Open Access eBook.
