In the apatites "requiring truth" burned the scarecrow of NTV journalists

In the apatites, the picketers burned the stuffed of the journalists of the NTV channel, protesting against the plot shown in the Central Television program on Sunday, March 17. According to IA Flashnord, the story of the channel talked about the bill establishing the ban on the production and sale of alcoholic energy drinks. Journalists provided the material about this with a report, whose hero was the local alcoholic Alexander Novikov, "famous" that, being drunk, fell out of the window of the fifth floor.

The picket, in which several people took part, was held at the building of the House of Culture and was authorized by the city authorities. Its holding the day before was announced by local newspapers and radio stations. "Apatites are not a city of morons and drunkards, with whom the NTV television channel introduced," said one of the participants in the action. In their hands, the picketers held the posters "Apatites choose sports", "We demand the truth from NTV." At the end of the action, its participants burned the scarecrow of NTV journalists.

According to the deputy head of the city of Apatita Pavel Chufyrev, it is not clear why NTV journalists decided to remove the report in the polar city, "after all, individuals like the main character can be found in any city in Russia, including Moscow." As it turned out later , most of the material shot by journalists is a setting. According to the regional media, the NTV film crew came to the bar and handed young people purchased banks with a Jaguar drink in advance, asking to pronounce pre -prepared texts.
