A Russian TV newsreader has been fired after apparently raising her middle finger to Barack Obama live on air.
REN TV, a privately owned Russian channel, dismissed Tatyana Limanova after a video clip of her gesture went viral.
Limanova was reading a report on the Asian-Pacific Economic Co-operation (Apec) summit held in Hawaii earlier this month when she noted that Dmitry Medvedev, Russia's president, had taken up its rotating presidency.
"Before, this post was held by Barack Obama," she read, before looking up at the camera, lowering her eyes again and raising her middle finger. Full story...
