International Fellows Explore Russia Today Headquarters 📰

On April 26, our fellows delved into the heart of Russian international media at the Russia Today (RT) headquarters. They were warmly greeted by senior editors who provided them with insights into RT's global operations and journalistic practices.

At RT, the participants of the InteRussia observed various aspects of news production, from editorial meetings to live broadcasts. They shadowed reporters as they covered breaking news stories and engaged in discussions with journalists about the challenges of reporting on international affairs accurately and ethically.

During their visit, our fellows also attended a lecture on the history of International broadcasting and its current state. Through the session, they gained an understanding of the role of media in shaping public perceptions and influencing global discourse.
