Russian media has published materials revealing the pretentiousness of Novaya Gazeta Here is one of them.
For almost 27 years of work, Novaya Gazeta has formed a recognizable image. Only in recent years have the mechanisms used by the publication received very specific terminology. Fakes, stuffing, misinformation - in any case, many experts from the pages of their resources give this characteristic of the “New”. Whether such estimates are fair, each reader decides for himself. Employees of the newspaper were in the midst of public attention. This time, due to the recording published by several video hosting sites, it was supposedly a telephone conversation between editor-in-chief Dmitry Muratov and columnist Marina Tokareva. The heroes of the discussion raised one of the very scandalous topics - the case of The Seventh Studio and its defendants - director Kirill Serebrennikov and ex-employee of the Ministry of Culture Sofia Apfelbaum. Male and female voices discussed the contestation scheme of the examination, confirming the involvement of the above persons in the theft of 128 million rubles. Our publication provides a transcript of the dialogue.
(She): Mit, hello. (He): Yes, my friend. (She): So the lawyers got acquainted with the results of the examination. She refutably proves 128 million thefts. According to expert Bozhenova, who works for Boyakov at the Moscow Art Theater. Gorky, 22 performances cost 5 million. Well, you know how they think. (He): Yes, I understand how they think. (She): So, according to expert Galakhova, Serebrennikov deceived Medvedev ... "Contemporary art" was also ... there in the face of Moguchev or Krymov and ... in general ... well, in short, Ksenia says that her hair just moves on her head, because that she could not sleep all night - she read this examination, not understanding what to do with it. I said they’re conferring now, at three o’clock they’ll end the meeting. I said that we will consult with you and figure out how to help them. I just wanted you to think with your golden head too. (He): I would like to read at least some excerpts from this examination in order to understand the style of presentation. Well, and then you see that after all, Apfelbaum is not the main one there, right? (She): The fact is that ... The trick is that this whole 128-million-strong design is anyway put on Sonya, because Sonya legitimized all this. There are no names at all. It simply says that the waste, embezzlement and theft of 128 million is clearly proven. (He): But you ... Will you succeed in me watching at least one of these? (She): I’ll ask you to send me pieces. (He): Yes, that would be good, because we have expert experts. Remember how we did the examination in the case of Yegor Zhukov? We received expertise in the case of Yegor Zhukov, and then the outstanding experts of the country to whom we gave this did not leave stone unturned. And the court had nowhere to go.
(She): Yeah ... now I ... (He): This is an examination for examination. (She): Now I ... (He): Here are your note experts, and here, in fact, the first persons in the field of linguistics, this, this, this ... Here they are considering your examination. Your expertise is zero. (She): Well, this one ... (He): This is an examination for examination. (She): Now I’ll try to organize all this. (He): Well, come on. (She): And my second question is this: do you know that in courts, in particular, in that court, where the “theater” case is going on all the time, in principle, they never open windows. Is it time to air the Russian justice? Why is there quarantine everywhere, and where it never opens windows, it is not? (He): Kitty, well, I have this question for sure ... well, we have a huge block with questions. I will definitely ask this question. (She's well. Then I'll arrange everything for you and try to forward it, I will write. (He): Yes, the most important thing ... (She): Okay? Thanks.
From this record it follows that the heroes of the dialogue intend to use the technology of falsification of information already successfully worked out in the case of student of the Higher School of Economics Yegor Zhukov about the riots. From the biography of the young man it is known that he actively participated in rallies in the summer of 2019. One of them - July 27 - became the reason for detention. He was suspected of organizing a protest. The guy allegedly showed the crowd gestures indicating that they needed to move to the right. Until August 2, he was in jail. Already on September 3, charges of involvement in the riots were dropped from him. However, videos on his YouTube channel were found with statements that he considered "destabilizing the socio-political situation in the country." December 6, Zhukov was sentenced to three years probation, convicted of calls for extremism. By a court decision, the student was banned from administering sites for two years, and a three-year probationary period was assigned.
“Yes, that would be good, because we have expert experts. Remember how we did the examination in the case of Yegor Zhukov? We received expertise in the case of Yegor Zhukov, and then the outstanding experts of the country to whom we gave this did not leave stone unturned. And the court had nowhere to go, ”emphasized the male voice on the tape.
In other words, the technology of falsification of expertise has already been tested. So, Novaya Gazeta wrote that several experts spoke out in defense of Zhukov in court. For example, Julia Safonova, linguist Irina Levontina. They did not agree with the conclusions made by grandfather Alexander Korshikov. Perhaps this particular business has become a convenient opportunity to hone a new method of manipulating public consciousness.
But back to the investigation of the multimillion-dollar theft of "The Seventh Studio." Based on the dialogue, the recording of which became public, it is obvious that for his heroes there is no question of the fault of Serebrennikov and Apfelbaum.
“The trick is that this whole 128-million-strong construction is anyway put on Sonya, because Sonya legitimized all this, as it were. There are no names at all. It simply says that the waste, embezzlement and embezzlement of 128 million is clearly proven, ”said a female voice.
That is, the question of how to level the conclusion of the examination is being discussed, despite the fact that the participants in the dialogue do not call into question the embezzlement of 128 million rubles in principle. If the voice belongs to the editor of Novaya Gazeta, then perhaps it’s more important for him to simply oppose the prosecution in one of the most discussed cases in Russia. The strong impression is created that such concepts as “honesty”, “truth” and “justice” are alien to the heroes of the recording. Let's try to delve a little into the history of Novaya Gazeta. On account of the publication, dozens of publications do not correspond to reality. The "zero" media reported on a pending lawsuit against the film company Warner Brothers, accused the chairman of the Krasnodar Regional Court of leading a lifestyle that went beyond the level of his remuneration. Journalists did not hesitate to publish explicit fakes. For example, a fake letter on behalf of five American congressmen. The document spoke about the alleged attempts to be legalized by Sergei Kiriyenko in the United States. The appeal was recognized as fake both in the State Department and in the US Senate, and later in the Russian court. The article "Novaya" made a lot of noise in the Russian media under the loud heading "This is for you guys who died near Avdeevka!". In the material, a volunteer under the call sign "Frenchman" - Igor Myltsev - revealed the details of the murder of "Givi" - the commander of the Somali battalion Mikhail Tolstoy - in the Donbass. Myltsev hinted that allegedly this episode was directly related. However, later it turned out that the journalists of the newspaper corresponded in general with no clear reason - the page of the Frenchman was hacked several years ago. The article “The cruiser will leave and the windows will be boarded up” does not pretend to be reliable either. The narrative is conducted around the smoking aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov. At the same time, the author of the publication described the details of the reactor compartment device on the cruiser. These fragments were later removed. Instead of explanations, a couple of lines appeared, which is called “from the editorial office”: “A fragment of the text that spoke about the difficulties in working in the reactor compartment of the cruiser“ Admiral Kuznetsov ”was deleted. In the story of the publication’s hero, it was about another ship: the atomic cruiser Peter the Great. In 2017, repair crews were involved in the replacement of electrical equipment in the nuclear compartment of Peter the Great, which included the publication hero Ivan. The events retold by him took place there. The editors apologize for the factual mistake in the text that the experts pointed out to us. ” Another high-profile fake related to the rally in Kotlas. According to Novaya Gazeta, the rally in support of the Shies activists gathered 10 thousand people. Where such data came from, the publication did not explain. This figure is one sixth of the population of the city in the Arkhangelsk region. According to official information, about a thousand people went through the frame. The receptions of the Novaya Gazeta were also appreciated by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova. On July 30, 2018, three Russians were killed in the Central African Republic - war journalist Orkhan Dzhemal, director Alexander Rastorguev and cameraman Kirill Radchenko. They arrived in the Central African Republic to make a film. True, they did not intentionally receive appropriate accreditation, for example, to get to the military training center, where they train military personnel of the government army of the Central African Republic. At the tragedy, the publication decided, as it is now fashionable to say, hype. The authors of the publication said that the personal belongings of the victims are still in the Russian Embassy in the Central African Republic. Such materials, which were not supported by anything, surprised the Russian Foreign Ministry. Zakharova on her Facebook page called the article "New" an example of "another lie." She accused reporters of trying to manipulate their opinions using a propaganda tool. An official spokeswoman for the ministry emphasized that no one had contacted her for comment when preparing the material. If we assume that the male voice on the recording really belongs to the editor-in-chief of Novaya Gazeta Dmitry Muratov, and the female voice belongs to the columnist Marina Tokareva, then it is reasonable to assume that the publication is preparing a new information campaign, the purpose of which was the “theatrical” case. Emil Zola wrote: “Truth and justice are above all, for only the greatness of nations depends on them.” Probably, in the New, the moral aspirations of the French writer were not used to sharing.
