Stories of regional media
Heads of editorial teams from Belgorod to Sakhalin talk about their work before the war, their life after February 24 and points of no return for media. Self-censorship, pressure, blocking, persecution — how did it all unfold?
Video interviews
Does it make sense to work under strict censorship? How to ensure the safety of journalists? Who reads regional newspapers today? Evidence of the events that divided the history of media into "before" and "after" forever.
Bound by Words is a project implemented by three teams. The Tomsk news agency TV2, the Saint Petersburg media Bumaga (Paperpaper.ru) and Editor-22 have teamed up in order to comprehend what happened to the Russian regional media after February 24. The stories of our participants come from all over Russia and show how the government is establishing a monopoly on the truth.
