The ban applies to Voice of Europe, RIA Novosti news agency and Izvestia and Rossiyskaya Gazeta newspapers

Ah right, no Fox News there.

Fox News is an American problem, they don't have any significant presence in Europe - the closest would be Sky News but Comcast bought it from Murdoch in 2018.

Banning state owned β€œnews” outlets makes sense. Banning legitimate journalists doesn’t.

Ban the troll factories and we're good. Banning those 4 news outlets will do nothing.

Except that at least Voice of Europe was used to launder bribes to EU right-wing politicians recently.
