A lady with a unicorn

She, in fact, replaces us with the royal family. I once already wrote about the ability of Ksenia Sobchak to make relatives from the public -noble fathers, grumpy aunts, envious cousins ​​and lusting nephews. It's nice that, having become an adult, she did not lose this ability.

She is our chief shareholder. No one else succeeds so at ease and constantly, in working mode, provoke an audience to picturesque and self -disclosure reactions.

Well, what are the anti -ratings and remoteness from the people? Just the opposite. Like it or not - for the people it is still its own. How the TV presenter becomes his own, but not every TV presenter. The point, of course, is not in the 95 percent recognition, which Ksenia leads as an argument in favor of his nomination. It is a matter of this of her ability to turn big topics and questions into something close and understandable. Public conflict - in private. Political conflict - in the household. Others - in the audience of the family television show. This seems to be her main gift.

She appeared among the everlasting jackets - immediately lubricating the map. And a dull scene where the president reigns alone, like a Sych, without a wife and children, was finally lit up with the possibility of melodrama. If not drama, Sobchak herself calls the Shakespearean situation in which she has to oppose Putin, who once saved her beloved dad.

The phenomenon of the prodigal daughter, who is either fighting with the “godfather”, or proves the right to the Father's throne in honest competition - and immediately became interesting.

And then Navalny is still. And where there are three - there is intrigue. King-Dama-Vale. Vague images pop up in the viewer’s memory: this is the fairy tale where the princess should stretch out the Tyranobor Hero the thread, leading him to the light (“I will take off my candidacy”), or the one where Mr. Dragon tells the girl to poison the knight before the battle? Will poison or not poison?

She appeared among the everlasting jackets - immediately lubricating the map. And a dull scene where the president reigns alone, like a Sych, without a wife and children, was finally lit up with the possibility of melodrama.

The daughter of a democrat or godson of Tiran, glamorous FRYA or workhorse, queen or frontier, showwoman or serious journalist? Her image was always dual, it belonged to different worlds, and now Sobchak is not only trying to remove this ambivalence, but emphasizes, directly declaring the status of an intermediary between the authorities and the opposition, “us and them” .

She set the agenda. If usually Ksenia Sobchak causes a dispersion of reactions, now you can observe a rare unanimity to it. Completely different media - federal and regional, pro -government and opposition - quote it equally actively. Different people have been committed - Putin and Peskov on the one hand, Khodorkovsky and Navalny on the other - meet her nomination with the same words: "Everyone has the right to go to the polls." It seems a little more - and Navalny will cease to mention her name - how Putin avoids mentioning Navalny's name.

We have not yet had such colorful spoilers. This is not a sluggish Prokhorov, a slave of honor. Not to mention the fact that Ksenia, unlike Prokhorov, does not give up the case for the sake of performing supports in the election show: she is engaged in her own business, the show is her profession. “I perfectly understand that what is happening now is not elections, this is like an election. What we see now is rather a kind of high -budget show, and as a professional I can say - a fairly low quality. ” She is going to improve the quality of the show. And in any case, it wins as a result of these elections.

Actually, she is already in the plus. For 7 days that have passed since the application for participation in the elections, Ksenia Sobchak reached second place according to the number of references on television. Only Putin is ahead of it in this regard. And if you take some federal channels - where until recently the path was ordered for her - there she is the third after Putin and Zhirinovsky. "Mediaology" counted more than 20 news stories about Sobchak on federal TV for a week by Tuesday. But by the evening of Tuesday, this number at least tripled-on this day, October 24, Sobchak generated a whole bunch of information farmers, giving a press conference in an electric theater , where she introduced her election headquarters, and simultaneously reflecting the attack of the provocateur in the rubber mask of a unicorn under the cameras. According to legend, only a pure virgin can tame a unicorn, in front of which the elusive beast dutifully falls on the ground,-the guard of Ksenia literally reproduced this symbolic act, throwing out the who wanted to ask the joker on the sidewalk in front of the theater.

Well, agreed - and who is not agreed here? These children believe that presidential candidates in this country are self -proclaiming - and adults know where the candidates come from.

First Channel, Russia-1, NTV, REN TV, TVC, OTR, Fifth Canal, Zvezda, Mir, Russia-24, not to mention the native rain, are all television channels where there are information broadcasting, all agencies, large and small newspapers, radio stations and network media that publish news. Over the first week of the election warm -up, Ksenia Sobchak took almost all the media benefits. On the day of the press conference, the network also posted her conversations with the most relevant interviewer of the modernity Yuri Dudem-at the same time, Ksenia Sobchak went down in the history of the show as the first hero of the female .

By the way, in this conversation, Sobchak complained that federal channels did not show her. And the Dud somehow could not argue with her reasonably. During a historical conversation, he generally noticeably lost to the interlocutor in terms of pressure - she continually intercepted the move. He was not able to force Sobchak to prove that her nomination is not a contractual match. And, despite the assurances that he was going to invite Sobchak for a long time, in the spring, it would be difficult to prove that this is an interview recorded after her nomination and posted after a press conference, not a contractual match.

And on the other hand - who would refuse in his place? When is everyone talking about Ksenia Sobchak? And everyone can understand. There was no such movement for a long time. For a long time, the creative estate did not shine, not even fees - but just the opportunity to stretch the stiff limbs and take them forgotten checkers. And to the audience-to observe for something action-packed.

Those who recently frowned, calling Sobchak a candidate agreed with the Kremlin, already somehow thought. Well, agreed - and who is not agreed here? These children believe that presidential candidates in this country are self -proclaiming - and adults know where the candidates come from. All of the Borovitsky Gate-but the main thing is what a person will do. She showed a video about political prisoners at a press conference. She stated that Crimea is not ours. She promises to oppose Putin. What else is needed?

It really needs a little - given how much and for a long time everyone weaned from such speeches on federal channels. Reluctance to find fault with the one who pronounces them. Ksenia Sobchak understands this, but rare questions, to which she is not answered with her hands, is easily beaten off - “Leave my sins for the time being, you will appreciate the beauty of the game.”

And the truth: the quality of the show is growing. Thanks to everyone who came up with this, you are the intakes. "This is democracy!" - screams a joker flattened on the ground in a mascot of a unicorn.
