This chapter expounds on media discourse under the reign of Russian President Vladimir Putin. To showcase fluid Russianness, it references the analyzed texts from the liberal Novaya Gazeta and Izvestia, and the broadcasts of the talk show Poyedinok. In an effort to divert away from dislocation and loss media discourses, Putin focuses on the metanarrative of flexibility to a government-led discourse of stability. To do that, the Kremlin began an aggressive campaign to change media power relations. Poyedinok became a tool for the development and dissemination of government discourse. The chapter also includes the resistance to the government discourse of stability on national identification. |
