Dmitry Kiselyov, former editor-in-chief of the information service of Ukraines ICTV Channel, has returned from Ukraine to Russia. Now every Sunday on television, he slings mud on all CIS countries and Ukraine. ----- FROM THE ARTICLE … Foreign Ministry: Videos on Rossiya channel about Ukraine far from journalism Oct. 22, 2013 … by Interfax-Ukraine via Kyiv Post [...] These videos, in my opinion, are far from being journalism. They are a strange mixture of untruths and half-truths, whereas the tone and vocabulary of the host gives the impression of low standards for the observer of international events. Its especially sad that this is happening on a state channel, which, quite the contrary, should be an example of balance and professionalism, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Yevhen Perebyinis told Interfax-Ukraine at the request to comment on the videos broadcast on Russias Rossiya-1 television channel on Sundays. [...] On October 21, the chairman of the parliamentary committee on freedom of expression and information, Batkivschyna MP Mykola Tomenko, said that the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry should make a public response to frankly boorish reports by Russian television channels on Ukraine. [...] Tomenko said he considered it necessary for the Foreign Ministry to make a statement that it responds to such things, rather than remaining silent. It shouldnt be like this any longer. This is information propaganda, to which we must respond, the MP said. kyivpost/content/ukraine/foreign-ministry-videos-on-rossiya-channel-about-ukraine-far-from-journalism-330842.html =====
