Title: What do news media in Putin’s Russia reveal about the regime’s survival strategy?
Summary: Applying natural language processing algorithms to digital textual data sets from state-controlled television and online news transcripts, La Lova finds large-scale evidence of attempts by Russian state-controlled domestic television to amplify for its audience the importance of the Ukrainian agenda in the years prior to the full-scale war as a tool for distraction from domestic events, while better informed audiences were perceived by the state-controlled media in Russia as a challenge.
