In 2005, Margarita Simonyan launched RT, Russia's first round-the-clock, English-language, international TV news channel, which has since expanded to a global, 24/7 news network with seven TV channels, digital platforms in six languages, and video news agency RUPTLY.
Under Margarita’s helm, RT grew its TV audience to 70 million weekly viewers and became the number one TV news network on YouTube with over 4,5 bln views, as well as a 5-time Emmy finalist.
In 2013, Margarita Simonyan also became Editor-in-chief of Rossiya Segodnya, an international news agency and radio service that broadcasts in more than 30 languages. Margarita began her journalism career in the Russian city of Krasnodar at the local TV and radio station, eventually heading up a regional bureau for Russia's largest nation-wide broadcaster, VGTRK.
As a war correspondent, she reported from Chechnya during the Second Chechen War, from the Beslan School Siege, and from Abkhazia, which earned her several journalism awards.
