how is russian television dealing with the conflict?

“We watched one of the main TV shows to find out how Russians are informed about the Boutcha massacre (Ukraine)”said Hugues Huet, special envoy to Moscow (Russia), Monday, April 4. “The presenter immediately speaks of provocations. A video showing Ukrainian tanks slaloming between dead bodies is broadcast almost continuously, with the word ‘fake’ written in red”said the journalist.

“We wonder about the chronology of the facts. On Wednesday, April 30, the Russian tanks left Boucha. The next day, the mayor of this city confirms the withdrawal but does not speak of corpses. It is only on Sunday April 3 that the photos and videos appear”, explained Hugues Huet. “Finally, experts question the scenography of the crime scene, noting that it is a staging aimed at harming Russia”concluded the journalist.
