Putin, Propaganda and the media | VPRO Documentary

- Is Putin’s propaganda omnipresent or is there still media freedom? Have the media been an extension of Putin's propaganda, or is there still media freedom in Russia? Is Putin using the media for his own propaganda or is media freedom something that Putin insists on? Is Putin’s influence visible in the media? A documentary about Putin, media freedom and the question if critical voices are still allowed.
In this eight-part travel series, the Dutch journalist and author Jelle Brandt Corstius travels through Russia and visits the neighbor countries Latvia, Moldova, Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan. What image do the Russians have of their neighbors and vice versa? What are the relations between powerful Russia and the other former Soviet republics? And how do the countries around Russia treat their Russian inhabitants? A series about propaganda and identity.
Jelle Brandt Corstius investigates if the Kremlin has become Putins Propaganda machine. Is the television fully controlled by Putin, as critics say? Or is the information we receive in the West one-sided? The Dutch author visits Russian state television and talks with presenter and talk show host Vladimir Slovyov about his work and the tragedy of the shot down passenger aircraft MH17. He talks to a journalist who has worked as a troll to propagate for Putin and meets homosexual moderator Anton Krasovsky, who has outed himself and therefore lost his job.
In Russia media freedom seems not exist anymore. Television is in the hands of the Kremlin and critical journalists are shot dead. Corruption, mismanagement and a dirty war in the Caucasus - news that are not reported on television. Since the annexation of the Crimea it has become even worse: Not only is the truth not told, but replaced by news that belong to a propaganda strategy.
Original title: Grensland: Onder het oppervlak (4/8)
Director: Alexander Oey and Jelle Brandt Corstius

Probably the most unbiased documentary I've seen on Russia, I can say that as a Russian. I've realised it only now how difficult it might be to navigate through our media from the outside
I love your documentaries. The quality is top notch! What a sad state of affairs in Russia under Putin. The people of that country deserve a free press with an eclectic variety of independent outlets that can cover a wide-range of topics - openly, and without fear of reprisal from state.
After this I'm not even sure what to believe anymore like seriously
I’m surprised Jelle hasn’t been deported or refused a visa , surely the authorities are aware of his documentaries on UA-cam ?
Jelle Brandt Corstius is a professional and does very informative documentaries. I enjoy watching his work.
As for Russian media, 10:16 the media guy is arrogant and totally in Putin's pocket! You can tell! "Should I put my General Stars on"? 13:38 when he touched the woman's breast area...if that were me I would have slapped his bullheaded face! What a choad!! Although I admire many things about Russia I feel that Russian Government heads are the Mafia of the World. They don't play nice or fair! 23:05 "Most Americans believe Fox News". NO SIR!!! We DO NOT!!!! Fox News is the enemy of the State, reporting mostly garbage!!! When we put an intelligent POTUS in office (and we'll do that if Russia will stop interfering in our elections) we will do everything in our power to dismantle that disgusting, fake news regime!
I can't believe how unbiased this video is.....this seems to be a report made by CNN...some facts are true but most of them lack of context..
7:20 a freudian slip
please make documentaries about turkey again.
