A large -scale project “20 questions to Putin” did not burden propaganda, but became her triumph

At first, the new format of Putin’s communication with the country inspired timid optimism. The honor of asking the president of 20 main Russian issues not Solovyov fell, but Vandenko. Already in this one, a breath of spring wind had a blizzard. Andrei Vandenko, of course, is not a dud, but a person is professional and seemed to have not lured himself with anything. Behind the idea of ​​a difficult operation to distract the people from the network, not just the tense thought of the demiurges from AP pulsed, even a change in the paradigm was visible. I wanted to believe in the sunset of propaganda, which was tired of everyone, including its ideologists.

Yes, Solovyov still remains at the post, but he already resembles the Vereshchaginsky sentry, forgotten in the snowstorms of the spike.

Once again, they were convinced: it is stupid to accept the weather change for the change of climate. The magic of spectacular numbers - 20 years in power, 20 main topics, 20 interviews - melted from series to series. Vandenko, unusual for federal TV, only set off the predictability of answers. The documentary did not bury propaganda, but, on the contrary, became its triumph. All meanings, codes, ciphers, which have been introduced into the collective unconscious Russians, came together in it. What problem is the interpretation - from Ukraine to national projects, from the arms race to artificial intelligence, from stability to the support of talented youth - from all the dusty “Ostankino”.

However, the electorate (not ostentatious, television, but true) has long had no questions left for Putin. Each communication with the nation is smoothly based on the enviable competence of the president in any areas of being. The conversation with Vandenko was no exception. The interlocutor stated only when discussing the nuances of civil society, resonant cases, and acceleration of rallies. Then Vladimir Vladimirovich recalled the reviewer, reasoning about the performance, whom he did not see. After all, most of the “Moscow affairs” refutes his main thesis “no one just waves a club”.

The project “20 questions to Putin” will end on March 25. On March 26, the country will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the president’s stay in power. The genre of the anniversary requires a return to the origins. I easily found a video on the network about the first elected night Vladimir Vladimirovich. Such an episode looks a watershed of time-Putin in a sports jacket is rapidly passing along the corridor of his headquarters in Alexander House. Around the air is raging, newsmakers hide non -edited faces from the television cameras, not the centrisbirk of Veshnyaks painfully copes with the shares of interest. “There will be no common curtsy,” said the fresh president of Russia as cut off. The same president twenty years later will take the results of his activities exclusively in the style of common curtys.

Why did it happen? This question has to answer distant descendants. Of our today, only some strokes are visible to the portrait of the phenomenon.

All these years, the only content of real politics was the love of the electorate for Putin. This love is actually elevated to the rank of national idea.

The relations of the state and society are exhausted by the list of personal good deeds of the president. With such a structure of power, he remains, in fact, only one thing - to become a “chief -speaking”. So called a little more than a century ago Kerensky - the Minister of Justice, claiming the role of the Savior of the Fatherland.

In one of the series, Vandenko asked the interlocutor about the doubles. Putin smiled: there are no doubles. This is probably true, but not all. Putin wants to be a double to himself, the former, when his every word was valued as much as gold. However, in two decades, words have been made from frequent use. Therefore, the victorious project looks like an act of surrender. With every minute it is more difficult to believe that it is good now, but it will become even better.

You need to be Dmitry Kiselev so that any body movements, including the collapse of prices, meet life affirming: "Russia remains in the plus."

Actually, this is the meaning of Putin’s next message to the void.

Something demiurges of the deep state do not understand about their deep people. The “20 questions” spent the abyss of creativity. Nevertheless, the numbers of views are quite modest. And Dudu is not the most successful actor Anton Lapenko (which many, including me, hear the first time), and after a few days 10 million views were recorded.

The first presidential night 20 years ago began with the prophecy of Mikhalkov. Even then, Nikita Sergeyevich, as a solved case, informed the country: the new president will be at the helm, of course, not four years allotted by the Constitution, and not less than ten. Even the main director of the state did not have enough imagination.

PS

The good news from the astronaut Tereshkova just came. She offered to reset the presidential terms after adopting amendments to the Constitution. Putin agreed.

Time flies unnoticed. Andrei Vandenko is time to think about the project “30 questions to Putin”.
