Pjotr Saeur – The Guardian March 15, 2022
An employee on Russia’s state Channel One television has interrupted the channel’s main news programme with an extraordinary protest against Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
Marina Ovsyannikova, an editor at Channel One, burst on to the set of the live broadcast of the nightly news on Monday evening, shouting: “Stop the war. No to war.”
She also held a sign saying: “Don’t believe the propaganda. They’re lying to you here.” It was signed in English: “Russians against the war.”
The news anchor continued to read from her teleprompter speaking louder in an attempt to drown out Ovsyannikova, but her protest could be seen and heard for several seconds before the channel switched to a recorded segment.
Ovsyannikova also released a pre-recorded video via the OVD-Info human rights group in which she expressed her shame at working for Channel One and spreading “Kremlin propaganda.”
“Regrettably, for a number of years, I worked on Channel One and worked on Kremlin propaganda, I am very ashamed of this right now. Ashamed that I was allowed to tell lies from the television screen. Ashamed that I allowed the zombification of the Russian people. We were silent in 2014 when this was just beginning. We did not go out to protest when the Kremlin poisoned [opposition leader Alexei] Navalny,” she said.
“We are just silently watching this anti-human regime. And now the whole world has turned away from us and the next 10 generations won’t be able to clean themselves from the shame of this fratricidal war.”
Wearing a necklace in the blue and yellow of the Ukrainian flag, Ovsyannikova said in her video statement that her father is Ukrainian and her mother is Russian.
“What is happening in Ukraine is a crime and Russia is the aggressor,” she said. “The responsibility of this aggression lies on the shoulders of only one person: Vladimir Putin.”
She urged fellow Russians to join anti-war protests in order to bring an end to the conflict. “Only we have the power to stop all this madness. Go to the protests. Don’t be afraid of anything. They can’t imprison us all.”
The protest was welcomed by Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy. In a video address on Monday night he said: “I’m thankful to those Russians who don’t stop trying to deliver the truth, who are fighting against disinformation and tell real facts to their friends and families, and personally to that woman who went in the studio of Channel One with an anti-war poster.”
OVD-Info said that Ovsyannikova was arrested shortly after her protest and was being held at the Ostankino television centre. Pavel Chikov, head of of the Agora human rights group, later said Ovsyannikova had been arrested and taken to a Moscow police station.
What a f…ing cuuunt – clear example of how many of mostly Moscow based russian people are so easily brainwashed and paid-off by the “western”-zio propaganda… sad.
This newsreader lady will benefit from looking at this footage:

Brain washed by her Dad and would prefer a job at CNN:
this lady should wake up and smell the coffee and stop being a shrill of the west. This war was brought on by the west/Ukraine by ignoring the Minsk agreement signed between Ukraine and Russia. No one wants war as it benefits nobody but when one tries to protect ones citizens and country by the creeping antagonism of the west then there is only one route if all else fails – strike first. So to ask this female if her house and family were attacked would she lie down and say ‘no attack and leave my family alone please’ or would she stand and fight? She is naive and stupid in the same breath.
Yes… we KNOW that ZATO is a lying. bunch of scumbags.
What ELSE is new?
It wasn’t until Russia overran the US-run biowarfare labs in Ukraine that I realised something obvious, that in 2003 the US not only failed to show any vials or buckets or barrels of biowarfare material Colin Powell at the UN claimed Iraq had produced; but they failed to show us the whole infrastructure of biowarfare weapons production Iraq would have needed to produce them. I always wondered why the US didn’t do what any dictatorship before them would have done and plant fake evidence (which I suspect is what Powell thought the Bush admin would do, and so those lies made him a war criminal).
I never realised the US didn’t have to produce viable WMD, just evidence of the infrastructure behind the program. However, they’d have had to fake the labs, procurement of equipment, the scientists, the research facilities, the production facilities etc. Evidence like Russians have got on the US right now.
Must be an anti-Putin, anti-Russian channel.
I don’t recall anything like this happening in the empire of lies?
So instead of spewing propaganda for Russian TV, she’s spewing propaganda for The Guardian.
Are we to believe that their TV set is so poorly controlled that this bimbo can walk in with that big sign and nobody notices that she’s about to pop up in front of a live camera?
I’m sure that the soon to be world famous “Agora human rights group” will be defending her brave actions through further exposure in The Guardian…
.
first she may be a hero to speak as
she thinks but she forgets that NATO
from the beginning was agressor lieing
to russia not to expand NATO to the east .
and the antihuman dictatorship will
lure even after Putin with communist –
fashist – corporative diktatorship as WEF
wants . there she should concentrate on !
The sign should say “No war. It is not real. It is all bullshit!”
War against Whites…notice no simian Afro-Asians or mongrel latinos are dying…just more white gentiles..many of them of Germanic stock..
This is all theatre isn’t it ?… most of this ‘war’ narrative is becoming quite laughable..
scripted for imbeciles..
May I remind you of the phony war, Sept 1st (1st of the 9, 1’s and 9’s again) 1939- May 10 1940.. the last time the financial carrion got all its little duckies in a row and saved its bacon… (to mix my metaphors)
russia’s fifth column which has been well documented on truthseeker. If we had a nationalist government in Britain these same sort of people would be betraying us. As i’ve said before these people want the “gay disco” in Russia and of course lots of shekels.
Kremlin memo names Tucker Carlson as ‘essential’ to its propaganda strategy

To Mad Mc’s–the British did try to plant evidence of WMDs in Iraq, digging cannisters out of the desert sand in front of cameras. We were not having it.
