The whistle was recognized as inconsistent
The whistle in the stands that Putin’s Olympic's speech met from the final plot of the Sunday Time program on Channel One. Explanation of TV presenter Peter Tolstoy: the plot only included the most important thing.
A comparison of what an amateur camera recorded with a plot shown by the first channel caused a violent discussion on the Internet.
Recall that network information resources reported that more than 20 thousand spectators, who on November 20 came to the Olympic sports complex for the world of the world mixed martial arts, Fedor Emelianenko with the American Jeff Montson, and the whistle reacted to the appearance of Vladimir Putin in the ring. The prime minister went out to congratulate the Russian athlete on the victory. This episode was broadcast on the air of the Russian-2 federal television channel.
As Putin’s press secretary Dmitry Peskov later stated, the Prime Minister did not take the frenzy of the audience on his account, who watched the fight in the Olympic.
"Vladimir Putin did not take this to his address, because from the ring where he was, it was clearly visible that all these disapproving exclamations, hooting were addressed to the loser of the battle. The moment when Putin went into the ring, and Jeff Montson’s“ Division ”in the locker room,” Dmitry Peskov explained.
The whistle in the stands, which the audience of the direct broadcast clearly heard, disappeared from the plot, prepared for the final program of the first channel "Sunday" time. "There was only the second part of the prime minister and applause.
Radio Liberty turned to Peter Tolstoy for the commentary to the program.
- Do not you think that the mounted plot did not reflect reality?
- Before preparing the plot, we are watching the source material that our colleagues working on broadcasting distillations to us. If this material is seen, it can be seen that in the beginning, when Putin appears, the hall meets it very warmly. People get up, applaud, shout "Hurray". Now about the final part, when Putin goes to the ring and begins to talk. There, in parallel, they really carry under the arms of an unfortunate American athlete who had a broken leg during the battle. And the hall screams with might and main, whistles and expresses all sorts of emotions. And then, when Putin says the words "Russian hero Emelianenko", there is no longer this violent reaction.
Regarding the fact that Putin was whistling ... I saw the source materials and I can’t say so.
As for your question about the conformity of the plot of reality ... In my program we talked about the event, said that Emelianenko won the battle and showed Putin, who congratulates Emelianenko. Like any person who appears before a public audience, Putin needed time to accelerate, so he began with some common phrase about martial arts. We took the end of his speech, in which he thanks Fedor, says that he has not only pumped up muscles, but also a wonderful Russian character, that he is a real Russian hero. We gave this phrase on the air.
In addition, we proceeded from the fact that we have a very dense layout in the program. And we can show only some kind of meaningful part, some replica that conveys the general mood and the most important words of the prime minister addressed to Emelianenko.
I repeat, the only criterion was the meaningful part of the prime minister’s speech in this stadium ... The fact is that it is technically impossible to drown out applause and leave Putin's sound. It is impossible, because the microphone is alone, and this microphone goes to the whole sound - and the one that rushes from the stands, and the words that the Prime Minister pronounces. Therefore, on this subject you can speculate for an infinitely long time, but it seems to me that this reflects more than what is desired than real.
- So, you chose the second part of Putin's speech. And the first one, where you can really hear a hoot, you did not set. Why? They were afraid that the audience would decide: this is a hooting against Putin?
- No. I repeat once again, there was not even a thought that some political speculation would appear on this subject ...
Do you really think that if the entire 22-thousandth stadium boosted Putin, then, after Putin congratulated Emelianenko, the whistle would have silent? Of course, they would continue to whistle. And Emelianenko would also be Oxvistan. I advise all those who want to continue to speculate on this topic, see the beginning of this broadcast, that is, the moment when Putin appears in the hall .. and think about how people who are at the stadium usually express their emotions.
I was at different sporting events, and I know that people like to whistle. But how can you whistle targetedly? How could the audience whistle specifically to Putin? And the boxers, then, did not whistle?
Of course, we have a sufficient number of people (in my opinion, there are about two percent of them) who are ready to inflate the problem to incredible sizes. I even envy them. It is so free from the cargo of reality and engage in such serious political problems as the whistle at the Olympic stadium ... Well, people have time, there is a desire ... I would like to have so much free time to discuss such details.
Putin meets with mass audiences daily, and because of my work I have to watch a lot of different records. And I assure you, there is not a single case in Russia when the reaction to Putin would or negative. Although, of course, people react differently.
- What do you mean, saying that people react differently? You said that there is no negative reaction?
- For example, tractor drivers who are sitting in a huge lit hall of some forum of United Russia do not clap, do not smile and do not squeeze their hands, they are a little constrained ...
But I assure you that if people who are now actively expressing their dissatisfaction on the Internet, gather in the same room and bring the president and prime minister to them, then they will not demonstrate one tenth of that desperate courage and dashing civilian position that is found in blogs. You can conduct an experiment, ”suggested Peter Tolstoy.
The case in the Olympic is not the first incident related to the mismatch of the television picture and reality. Recall that at the end of 2009, the Radio correspondent Freedom discovered the pads at the organization of the "direct line" of Vladimir Putin’s communication with citizens. As the RS correspondent was told in the city of Pikalavo, the Leningrad Region and the village of Cheryomushka Khakassia, partners for dialogue were prepared in advance. Those who did not agree with the previously proposed list of issues, but wanted to talk with Putin, ended up in a sanatorium or locked office.
