“The Austrian journalist Arman interviewed Vladimir Putin 11 times in an hour and a half of the interview, which was given by the head of state for the Austrian television and radio company ORF on the eve of the visit to Austria,” the host Vladimir Solovyov wrote on Twitter.
“Preparing for the conversation, the Austrian journalist gathered all the stamps of Western propaganda in order to put the president of Russia. But he did not succeed. All the labels lose their strength, faced with facts, logic and common sense ... He (Arman Wolf) applied his signature technique - to interrupt the interlocutor - 11 times! The interlocutor, in order to calm him down, had to switch to German, ”the host of Putin, the host of the Vestin program Ernest Matzkevichius, commented on.
“An interview with Vladimir Putin to Austrian TV showed that Western journalists are assuming the role of prosecutors,” Vesti 24 stated.
About eleven times, the leading talk shows “Time will tell” on Channel One and “60 minutes” did not get tired of repeating-on the channel “Russia. Actually, this is almost all that was allowed to recognize the audience of federal TV about this interview-in addition, it is natural that ours did not bash, held on to the well-to-the -own Austrian, and, which is characteristic, in German.
“Why was he interested in a question about a naked torso?! - experts in the studio were indignant. - This speaks of the intellectual level of this journalist ...
The task of the journalist is to reveal the interlocutor, and not cut him on stupid matters. ” The address audience appreciated everything correctly. “I watched, one conclusion - the journalist is non -blessed and unculture,” such an opinion of a simple viewer was brought to the screen during the show “Time will tell”.
What is the West - such are its journalists. Either our business is the same Solovyov with Matzkeavicius. The great honor fell out - to communicate with Putin himself. Solovyov in two films - “President” and “The World Orion” - interviewed him. Polite, culturally, in a half -floor from overwhelming feelings. Matskyavicius a couple with Maria Sittel led in 2008-2011 “Conversation with Vladimir Putin” (as they renamed the “direct line” during the years of Putin's premiere). And also - is highly cultural. There was no question of killing the hero or ask him a clarifying question.
And here - as many as 11 times. Formal disgrace.
And after all, someone sat down and specially calculated with a pencil that it was 11, and not 10 or 12.
However, the passion for estimates by them, television people, in the blood. Long before the Direct Line-2018, federal channels began to count the time-“to the“ Direct Line ”remained ...”. Preparation for it became the main theme of all news releases. Day after day, hour after an hour, the audience informed how many questions were asked: by phone, using videouters, through SMS and MMS and all other ways available to Russians. Correspondents of the Russia channel calculated that during the entire existence of the “direct line” Vladimir Putin answered questions for more than two days - from 3 to 5 hours in different years. A record number of questions - as much as 3 million - was in 2013. This year, by the beginning of the broadcast, their number exceeded 2 million.
An hour before the beginning of “one of the key political events of the year”, Vesti told in detail about the readiness of the studio, where the president is about to appear. “The wires are connected. The technique is configured. The heads of the regions have adjusted plans for today - some of them have to answer. Here is the table that the president will sit down soon. Pay attention - under the table there is a special leg stand - so that those who sit are convenient ... The conversation may be emotional, and so that none of these emotions escaped, 13 television cameras are installed here. ”
About who will help Vladimir Putin conduct the current “straight line”, became known before her beginning. This honor fell to Kirill Kleimenov (Deputy General Director of Channel One, the head of the information program directory) and Andrei Kondrashov (first deputy general director of the VGTRK, who oversees the information direction of the holding). For the first time, the “straight line” was entrusted to hold a purely male pair, and not a man and a woman, as happened before. Well, what can you do if they, these valiant men, who, in the previous season, certainly deserved the right to sit next to their hero, breathe with him with one air and create the most comfortable conditions for him, so that no black thought overshadows his bright brow.
Kleimenov shockly worked out the election presidential campaign on the air of the Time program. Kondrashov, the author of the film “Putin”, headed the press service of the election headquarters of the presidential candidate Vladimir Putin.
People are proven, devoted, hardened in information battles. It’s not that to kill his hero (they can only dream of in a nightmare), but even to clarify some information sounded from his lips-they could not come to their minds. Yes, and there is no reason.
All shining from a meeting with the beautiful, Kleimenov asks the first question about what kind of strip we have - black, white or gray? And he receives a spiritual answer: "We are now moving towards a stable white color."
The direction is set. And, following him, during direct inclusions, they optimistically report on the work done and share their grandiose plans for the future ministers, regional leaders, and industry officials.
Life is definitely getting better. The rainbow painting “ordinary people”, sometimes breaking on the air with their private problems, spoil the rainbow picture,
But the governors, who are immediately called to the answer, instantly promise to fix and report everything to Vladimir Vladimirovich as soon as possible.
Occasionally, unpleasant questions appear on the screen: “Why does this country have money for tanks, bombs, planes, machine guns and no money for humans?”; "Why was Alexei Navalny not registered as a presidential candidate?" But thank God, the leading these questions do not read aloud, and therefore there is no need to answer Putin. But they are important as a demonstration of the absolute openness and democracy of the entire action - now try to say that citizens' appeals were filtered and censored.
There are few common people on a straight line. And this is also an innovation. Previously, in 10 settlements, groups of specially selected and trained workers, peasants, soldiers, foremen and sailors were waiting for their turn to ask some question of state or regional importance. Now we decided to limit ourselves to questions by phone or skype.
In two hours that have passed since the beginning of the “direct line” (and then I have to take the column), no one has yet asked the president, a Christmas tree, a puppy or Barbie doll. But it became noticeably more advanced youth - volunteers, bloggers. The writers pulled themselves up - Shargunov, Prilepin.
The last thing I saw was the SMS message displayed: “We must make a sidom, dear!”
