Russia Today America anchor Liz Wahl resigned while broadcasting on live television Wednesday, citing Russia's decision to invade Ukraine as the reason for her departure.

Wahl, who works as a Washington correspondent, said she could no longer be "part of a network that whitewashes the actions of Putin," and mentioned her family, who came to America to escape Soviet forces during the Hungarian revolution. "I'm proud to be an American and believe in disseminating the truth, and that is why after this news cast, I am resigning."
