In the podcast “Text of the week” we usually talk about the main, most noticeable, interesting and resonance material “Medusa” over the past seven days, but on New Year's holidays we decided not to discuss the texts that have just been released, but the iconic materials that we missed in 2020.

Over the year, 47 episodes of the “text of the week” came out, that is, we discussed only 47 reports, investigations and analysis with journalists (and even one photo station ). And of course, there were much more important materials. In the festive issue, Alexander Sadikov chose three more texts of last year, which should be re -read during the holidays.

In this episode:

01:44 We discuss with a special correspondent of Medusa Andrei Peresev his April article “ Politicians who overtook time ” about a short but instructive history of the Party of Beer Lovers. What parallels can be drawn with the situation on the eve of the Duma elections of 2021?
14:12 With Special Corps Irina Kravtsova, we recall her report on children who learned that their mother is a sex worker. What is the journalist to write about such emotionally complex stories?
25:15 with journalist Maxim Solopov, we are talking about his joint with Christina Safonov’s text about the most mass death of Moscow firefighters over the past 70 years. As a fire on September 22, 2016 in a warehouse in Moscow, when eight firefighters died at once, split the professional community? Why four years later all the details of the incident were not clarified, and the trial of those who led the extinguishing is still coming?
