Voice of Russia in Runet
When I visited Edelman offices in America during my business trip to Chicago and New York (11-18, August), I noticed that the information that I heard everywhere from media there – TV, radio and press, concerning Georgia conflict – was not objective. Because the massive of information was presented only from one side of the conflict, while the conflict had two sides as minimum! And every morning my hotel’s TV started with «mr. Saakashvili said…». So, during my being in US the most popular question from my colleagues was «What is really going on?»
In this post I’d like to review some online resources, which present Russian position on the main economic and political issues:
The Voice of Russia – state radio company broadcasting in foreign languages. It broadcasts 450 programs about life on modern Russia, its history, culture, internal and external policies.
Russia Profile - is an English-language information service offering expert analysis of Russian politics, economics, society and culture.
Nikitsky fund - Strategy: Truth and Beauty (and Russian Finance) by Eric Kraus.
Russia Today - is 24/7 English-language news channel to present the Russian point of view on events happening in Russia and around the globe. A selection of the best news reports, stories and programmes can be viewed at it’s Youtube channel.
«Kommersant» – Russia’s daily online English version of business magazine.
RIA news and Information Agency – a news portal in 10 languages offering news and analytical articles, photo, video, online conferences and readers’ comments.

Talking about ‘objectivity’, which of these sites aren’t government controlled (i.e. do no represent the views of the Kremlin)?
Judgeing by some of the headlines on these sites, calling them ‘objective’ is the same as calling Russia a truly democratic state…
Nikitsky fund, Russia Profile – for sure. As I noticed before in conflict there are two sides minimum and it’s a must to listen to different points of view
