“The journalism department is dead. They killed him "

Journalists of Novaya Gazeta Europe in the podcast "What is new?"

Political repressions and war changed the Russian education, especially went to the journalism faculties. The most seemingly “liberal” journalism of Russia - the journalism faculty of the Higher School of Economics - is gradually becoming increasingly conservative in the bad sense of the word.

Independent teachers are squeezed out of the faculty. And with the outbreak of war, propaganda leaked into all spheres of the life of students of the journalism department.

• How did the university with a liberal reputation degraded and bent to the needs of propaganda?

• Are the islands of freedom of speech remained in the tower?

• And is it necessary to study journalism at the university at all?

We discussed these and other issues in the fresh episode of the podcast "What is new?" With journalists of Novaya Gazeta Europe David Arakelyan and Tanya Kovtun, who studied at the Higher School.
