A note on the RT archive
For several years Mo Ansar was a regular guest on RT, once or twice a week, with clips viewed tens of millions of times. Those videos were removed from YouTube in 2022. The broadcasts listed above survive on RT’s Dailymotion channel and on Mo’s own Facebook page; more will be added as the archive is recovered.
