Media must cover the above atrocities because they are an important part of information field, and the public has a right to be aware of them
One of the most impressive plays with a strong anti-war message is penned by Bertolt Brecht. It is called “Mamma Courage and Her Children.” It deals with those petty characters who take advantage of nearby hostilities. In other words, they feed on carrion.
Today those who can not do without the smell of decay are surfing numerous web sites on the subject. They can savor the pictures of Iraqi prisoners being abused by American servicemen. They can look at the bodies of dead GI's for a change. The videos depicting the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center are likely to rival porno web sites in popularity.
It is understood that media must cover the above atrocities. They are an important part of information field and the public has a right to be aware of them. You can write about it and hate the subject at the same time. It is a different story when you do business by using any news relating to the subject. In the name of hate and money.
NTV channel went through dramatic changes during the reign of Evgeni Kiselev. A few really good reporters under his command eventually turned into the traders of carrion due to Mr. Kiselev and his henchmen.
It is quite clear that the issue of Chechnya has always been a political issue partly created by the Russian oligarchs. We can recall a fairly good relationship between Boris Berezovski and the leaders of Chechen rebels to that effect.
The NTV correspondents always happened to be in the know of what was going to happen during the first Chechen conflict. But objectivity of the coverage was out of the question. At most cases they would report on yet another ultimatum of the rebels, another military success of the rebels, another day in life of a Chechen warlord and so on. In other words, they rendered their information services to those who paid them. To those who also financed Dudaev, Maskhadov, Raduev etc.
