Author of quotes: Ilya Paranicas

The Russian authorities are outraged by the fact that the West began to restrict the activities of certain Russian media broadcasting to the local audience. Restrictions on their activities because, from the point of view of foreign authorities, the Russian media propaganda under the camouflage information, claiming their right to exercise freedom of expression proclaimed in the West. I think the Russian officialdom would not hurt to not worry about the Western consumer information and domestic. The Russians, too, have a right to information, but they are deprived of this right, instead of information from the Federal channels is served to them disguised propaganda. For which its manufacturers are entitled to exorbitant salaries, the government awards, and other wonderful benefits.
Propaganda masked as well as advertising. In advertising, there's a trick: instead of a frontal roller commercial on TV or ads in the newspaper is as if the normal journalistic material. In form it is a normal article, interview, report from the event, and the content - disguised advertisement for some company, a particular product or service. Or is there another "Fenya" in movie or TV series you see the logo of a certain brand of car (or, say, a whiskey label) - its show time, other third. For this screening appropriate firm paid a lot of money. And the propaganda that feeds us: looks like a news or infotainment shows, but really is an instrument of propaganda.
Propaganda has nothing to do with journalism. In the USSR, the propaganda Department was in the CPSU, not the Union of journalists. Now the propaganda is deeply zakonspirirovana, but in the government still there are which it know - long search is not necessary, just look there, where once sat the "Leninist Central Committee" (the Old square in Moscow).
