Employees of some federal media did not receive a reservation from mobilization, despite the promises of the authorities
Journalists from several large pro-government publications told Nyurstka about their resentment towards the Kremlin for not being given guarantees against being sent to the front, and some colleagues even received subpoenas.
In the first days after the announcement of partial mobilization, the Ministry of Finance published a list of “backbone” media that are entitled to reservations. But soon this list disappeared from the ministry's website, and now the media teams will find out whether they are eligible for reservations from their chief editors.
The armor was announced to journalists from several publications. These are the state-owned Rossiyskaya Gazeta, Komsomolskaya Pravda (considered Putin's favorite newspaper), AiF (the newspaper where Security Council Secretary Patrushev and his assistants publish), Izvestia, and MK (the editor-in-chief is a member of the Public Council of the Ministry of Defense).
But such guarantees were not received by the big three business publications RBC, Vedomosti and Kommersant. The editor-in-chief of the latter, Vladimir Zhelonkin, told Layout: “We didn’t mobilize anyone, but summons came to individual employees.” And journalists from Regnum, which is run by former Kremlin official Modest Kolerov, have already gone to the front.
