The letter, the text of which was disseminated in Moscow on January 17, also mentions that the Belarusian authorities make no secret of their intentions to change the frequency of broadcasting of some Russian TV channels. This “will entail the contraction of the viewers’ audience in the country,” – say Grigory Yavlinsky and Olga Abramova.

News agencies ... 9. Prime sources for detailed information 1. The written press During the Soviet era, Russia had a long and well established tradition of media use. Practically each Russian household during 1970 - 1990 subscribed several print outlets: one or two leading central newspapers (such as Pravda, Izvestiya, Trud, Sovetskaya Rossiya, etc.), at least one local/republican newspaper and several specific magazines (e.g. for the members of the Communist Party, farmers, workers, women, children, ecologists, professional journals, etc.). The subscription rate of those publications was unreasonably low while the circulation was quite high. This was due to the state system of media financing, in which the idea of media profitability did not play any significant role. The collapse of the Soviet Union has changed this system forever. The period of Gorbachev perestroika was the most productive time for the Soviet media state control and censorship were waning while economic and financial pressure had not come over media outlets yet.

The Russian public had hardly recovered from the grisly Moscow theater siege before Parliament began blaming the press for expressing anti-government sentiments. In the end, President Vladimir Putin ceremoniously vetoed amendments to press and anti-terrorism laws that would have imposed new restrictions on the media. Journalists stopped short of praising the Kremlin, whose long hand was seen behind the legislation. Since Putin came to power in 1999, independent media have come under increasing pressure. Criminal investigations forced two of the biggest media magnates, Boris Berezovsky and Vladimir Gusinsky, into exile. The situation, it seemed, could hardly get worse. In Novoye Vremya (Nov. 24), Tatyana Kamoza noted Russia’s already low press-freedom ranking: Before the Moscow hostage-taking, according to the French group Reporters sans Frontières, Russia took 121st place out of 139 countries, ahead of Iran but behind Ukraine (112).

Manber denied a Russian news report that said Bass' space flight may fail to materialize. He insisted that he still believes the singer's corporate sponsors will deliver the money that they were scheduled to transfer weeks ago in accordance with the contract between the U.S. team and the Russian Aviation and Space Station (Rosaviakosmos).

Bahasa Indonesia Nederlands English Español Português start Hot Spots Hot Spots links Archive Checkpoint Budapest ... Press Review Archive Russian Media and the Elections By our Eastern Europe Editor Margreet Strijbosch, 24 March 2000 Watching the Russian elections on television it's hard to believe that the presidential election is being held on Sunday. There is not a trace of election fever. On the contrary, the war in Chechnya is getting just as much coverage as the election campaign. The only presidential candidate who can benefit from this is Vladimir Putin. Bombs and mortars, the coffins of dead soldiers, weeping widows vowing to raise their sons to become heroes like their fathers, Russian television just can't get enough. Even so, the deluge of war footage does not automatically mean that the Russian viewer is well-informed about what is happening in Chechnya. Living soldiers are preferably seen waving cheerfully from their tanks. And there is not a trace of the two hundred thousand Chechen refugees on Russian television. However, not all Russian television stations are equally guilty, according to media researcher Natalya Mirimanova : "Russian TV is partially owned by the state, partially owned by corporations, and partly by people who are called oligarchs in this country. The state has some shares in the first channel, ORT, but it's mostly owned by Mr. Berezovsky who is very close to the Kremlin. Russian State TV is owned mostly by the state, although I can say that it's more independent than ORT. NTV is traditionally the independent TV station".

Bahasa Indonesia Nederlands English Español Português Start Hot Spots Hot Spots links Archive Press Review Press Review Archive Russian Media Turns Hostile towards Putin by our Moscow correspondent Geert Groot Koerkamp, 18 August 2000 The Russian authorities' handling of the Kursk submarine tragedy has drawn some unusually scathing criticism at home. Russian President Vladimir Putin has taken quite some flak because he kept silent for several days and failed to break off his holiday. Russian newspapers have portrayed Navy Commanders as Soviet dinosaurs whose knee-jerk reaction to any disaster is to lie to the public Nearly a week has passed since the Russian nuclear-powered submarine, the Kursk, sustained heavy damage during naval exercises and went down in the icy waters of the Barents Sea. During the entire week, the Commander in Chief of Russia's armed forces, President Vladimir Putin, followed events from his holiday resort by the Black Sea. He remained silent for several days, before acknowledging in a brief statement to the press that conditions on board the stricken vessel were critical and that Russia would accept foreign help. Foreign assistance is now well under way, but will almost certainly be too late. "A Classic Case of Wasted Time" is how the Segodnja daily described the history of the Kursk tragedy. On Holiday Reflecting mounting public anger, the Russian media have been unusually critical of President Putin and Navy Commanders. They blame the President for going on holiday

The Russian Media Fund Home Proposal Goals Plan ... Contact Creating an Effective Media Environment for Business in Russia The state of Russia's media sector presents an obstacle to all companies doing business in the country. That's because the media business is still mired in a set of laws and policies that are an impediment to its functioning in a normal way: 1. Companies operating in Russia can not fully tax deduct their advertising expenditures. This limits the success of all businesses in the country. And it inhibits the development of the advertising market needed to support a really productive and independent media environment. 2. Newspapers are not allowed to operate profitably since they may contain no more than 40 percent advertising content. (By comparison, American newspapers average almost 60 percent.) A similar restriction exists for broadcast media. That gives little incentive for legitimate investment capital to use in establishing improved media offerings. 3. Incentives exist for non-media companies to acquire media properties as a tax dodge. Owners also use them to advance their private business or political interests. As a result, media companies aggregate audience rather randomly, giving advertisers a weak audience demographic. Furthermore, the media companies do not understand and serve the needs and interests of their readers, listeners, viewers, and advertisers. This has led to a low level of consumer trust in the media, including media advertising.

Iraq War: RW 2003 Feb. 17, 2003: JRL Home #14 - JRL 7065 Time Europe February 24, 2003 Bad News from Russia NTV television loses its top news anchor — and its independence — as Putin extends his control By YURI ZARAKHOVICH/MOSCOW The 112 million viewers who regularly tuned into the top-rated NTV television news show Namedni (The Other Day) were used to the show's anchor, Leonid Parfyonov, lambasting Russian President Vladimir Putin — even mocking Putin's resemblance to Dobby the house elf from the Harry Potter movies. But Parfyonov's performance last week was uncharacteristically subdued, given that he had recently announced plans to end the program. Still, even if expected, the final sign-off came as a shock: "Namedni will not appear again ... Good luck." Namedni's demise means the end for NTV, once Russia's only private national television station. After a three-year fight, the network now finally passes into the hands of Putin allies. The house elf has got his revenge. Launched in 1993 by the then powerful oligarch Vladimir Gusinsky as the flagship of his Media-Most holding, NTV helped Boris Yeltsin win re-election in July 1996 against seemingly impossible odds, and afterward enjoyed preferential treatment. NTV anchors got easy access to Kremlin insiders. Parfyonov, 43, became a star. His documentaries on Russian and Soviet history and culture were educational, entertaining and immensely popular. Namedni's informal style and Parfyonov's sharp tongue attracted a large audience.

Then, this summer, most media outlets in Volgograd signed an agreement with Russia's domestic security service voluntarily censoring what they say about it. Under the agreement, the Federal Security Service, a successor to the KGB, agreed to provide information about its activities, and journalists agreed to convey the information to the public "without giving any commentaries." Any negative information about the FSB, as the agency is known by its Russian initials, cannot be published or broadcast until the FSB is contacted and "competent bodies look into it."
