Телесоскоб (12.06.2018) с Николаем Платошкиным

FOOTBALL — LET'S CHEER TOGETHER! EVERYONE WANTS... The program's guest is TV viewer, historian, and diplomat Nikolai Platoshkin. ...what's shown on your television can be contagious. You won't even notice how you'll start repeating what they say and living the way they tell you to. We can't cure anyone. We only diagnose. We take a TV sample and put it under the microscope.

Our team won the football match. And the country's main news also began with this—the victory in the opening match of the World Cup. It's not that I'm against football. An era has passed, no matter how one feels about it. Football... it's just a game, albeit one with political overtones. Like Eurovision.

"There's a chance that the World Cup in Russia won't be a dream, but a 31-day nightmare. Intolerance is rampant there, full of xenophobes, nationalists, hooligans, and bandits. Crazy people will turn all 11 cities into street brawls, and all of this will eclipse the World Cup. Russia constantly violates human rights, invades other countries, and disrupts the peace in the world. We should fight together against tyrants, not encourage the development of tourism in this country." Los Angeles Times Kevin Baxter: Americans—it's clear.

In Ukraine, world-class football is banned in Russia. It's just a game! Oh, I forgot. Politically motivated...
