Russian TV Station Dozhd Might Disappear Due to Poll about the Siege of Leningrad
One of the largest cable operators in Russia, Trikolor, announced about exclusion of the Dozhd television from its offers beginning on 10 February, according to Tvrain.ru. This measure was announced after the scandal caused by a poll about the Siege of Leningrad, conducted by Dozhd.
According to the channel’s representatives, the Board of Trikolor voted for exclusion of Dozhd unanimously. The decision says that the television was excluded because its editorial policy contradicted the principle governing the creation of service packages.
