Two stories about the work of journalists

Yesterday, after we sent the “evening jellyfish”, two events occurred, by which we can judge the state of journalism in different countries.

• At a meeting of the leaders of the Russian media with Vladimir Putin, the chief editor of Kommersant Sergey Yakovlev asked a question about the decision of the CEC , which did not allow Alexei Navalny to the presidential election, and the reaction of the United States, which expressed concern in this decision. Putin replied that the United States would like to “advance” Navalny in the leadership of Russia. Colleagues did not support Yakovlev and did not even try to develop the topic: no one recalled that Navalny created a network of election headquarters throughout Russia and held numerous rallies that gathered tens of thousands of people.
• On the same day, the new US Ambassador to the Netherlands, Pit Hukstra, held his first press conference after appointment. Journalists reminded him of his previous statements. “Islamist movement is already able to immerse Europe in chaos. Chaos in the Netherlands: burn cars, set fire to politicians. And yes, in the Netherlands there are places where you can’t go, ”said Hukstra in 2015. At a press conference, the ambassador tried to hush up the topic, but the journalists continued to ask which of the politicians set fire to the Netherlands one by one. The ambassador was not released for five minutes. “These are the Netherlands! You must answer questions, ”one of the journalists demanded.

Interview by Armando Iannucci

On January 25, the film “Death of Stalin” will be released in the Russian rental - a comedy about the struggle for power in the Soviet Union in 1953. Anton Dolin spoke with the director of the picture of Armando Iannucci - he believes, for example, that comedies can be shot on any topic:

“It all depends on what comedy you will do, how you will contact the topic. With sensitive topics, one must be delicate, but this does not mean that they cannot become the basis for comedy. The same thing with a musical, drama, any genre. It is necessary to determine the risks and try to act smartly. ”

What else

• In Maine, the historical building was carried away by the wind from the USA to Canada. The Americans want to return it back, but Canadians have not yet allowed;
• The 20th Century Fox studio has released the Russian version of the Dadpool 2 poster - there are dumplings, glasses and cucumbers.
