Two journalists discussed how Russia branded itself as an antidote to the West, the state of media freedom in today’s Russia and the future of Vladimir Putin.
'We need to pay a lot closer attention to what Russia does to its neighbors. The Estonians were getting hacked before it was fashionable. You knew what fake news was before we did. What happens here is a harbinger of what happens to us in the future' – Brian Whitmore
The episode was recorded at Vytautas Magnus University in Kaunas, where Artūras presented the newest Nanook multimedia project “While the Red is on”. The project uncovers the stories about Russian political refugees finding new home in Lithuania. Later Brian Whitmore talked about the the project in his blog.
