Russia said to grant NSA leaker Edward Snowden formal entry

According to Russian media, Edward Snowden has just been granted entry into Russia. Though the NSA whistleblower has been offered asylum in Bolivia and Venezuela, he reportedly requested temporary asylum in the Eastern European country last week.

Stay tuned -- we'll be updating as more information becomes available.
