  • Media Sustainability Index – Russia 2017
    As a 2016 Mediastandart Foundation survey confirmed, the vast majority of Russian journalists feel that they are not free and independent, and believe that media owners undermine the independence of journalists. RUSSIA ii MEDIA SUSTAINABILITY INDEX 2017 introduction OVERALL SCORE: 1.43 RUSSIA In 2016, in preparation for the September Duma legislature elections, Russian authorities continued to build up pressure on independent media. In March 2016, national NTV aired a documentary, “In Debt to the State Department,” which claimed that the US government dictates the editorial policies of several regional independent private media outlets. In June, the Iprivate national RBC media holding let go of its editor-in-chief and her deputies after they ran a series of investigative reports about senior Russian officials and their family members. Economic decline triggered by European Union (EU) and US sanctions slowed down, and the Russian advertising market started to recover in the past year. But while television and Internet advertising increased, newspapers continued losing advertising revenue. Print media generally continued to lose circulation revenue because of rising paper prices and a diminishing number of kiosks. Russia has many media outlets that are owned by national, regional, and local authorities and state-affiliated businesses; these serve government interests. Such outlets outnumber the independent media that serve the public interest. As a 2016 Mediastandart Foundation survey confirmed, the vast majority of Russian journalists feel that they are not free and independent, and believe that media owners undermine the independence of journalists. Although state subsidies to the media decreased, this funding has continued to be a substantial source of revenue for media outlets, influencing the content of media coverage.
