This podcast focuses on a discussion about the Kremlin’s Ukraine war, delving into moral and practical implications while exploring the evolving media landscape for Russian opposition journalists.

Six month after the invasion of Ukraine by Russian troops, the report explores the structure of anti-war propaganda in the Russian-speaking community, its successes and limitations.

We talk in detail about how the war and repressions transformed the Russian media: why independent media outlets didn’t lose their audience despite blocking; the salary hikes that the authorities had to offer their spin doctors; and how censorship works in the private media.
