by Reuters

   MOSCOW --

   The Kremlin said on Friday it was studying a move by cable and digital
   TV providers in the United States to take Russia's RT TV channel off
   the air in Washington, saying the move looked like it was illegal and
   discriminatory.

   Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told a conference call with reporters
   lawyers were closely studying the grounds for the decision, but said
   that at first glance it looked illegal and discriminatory.
