Pretty much propaganda SOP. When a situation becomes untenable and the outcome is foreshadowed, salt the feed with results counter to expected agenda to endear viewers and have a story to point to and say "See, we're on your side, continue to watch us". RT is a prime practitioner of this, which isn't surprising as the KGB has been around for decades.
