Moscow police detain protesters outside TV station

Police have detained dozens of people protesting outside the Kremlin-loyal NTV television station in Moscow after it aired a documentary that portrayed the Russian opposition as paid agents of the United States.

Among those detained was Sergei Udaltsov, an opposition leader who had already been detained twice this month at protests that have followed Prime Minister Vladimir Putin's victory in a presidential election.

At Sunday's protest, hundreds of demonstrators chanted "Shame on NTV" and "Russia without Putin."

The NTV program "Anatomy of a Protest," which aired Thursday, triggered tens of thousands of angry tweets and comments on social networking websites.
After Putin came to power in 2000, he engineered the takeover of the private NTV network by the state-controlled gas giant Gazprom.
