Good Americans and bloodthirsty Europeans. Monitoring of Russian media in February-March 2025

Donald Trump has become the center of attention in the Russian media, surpassing even Vladimir Putin in the number of mentions. His statements are becoming part of the Kremlin's propaganda, which uses them to support the narrative of Russia's "rightness" in the war and attempts to establish peace on the Kremlin's terms. The propaganda actively shapes the image of the United States, where Trump personifies a "right" American who can change the White House's policy in favor of Russia.At the same time, propagandists do not forget to turn Europe into a new enemy, replacing old narratives about "Anglo-Saxons" with new expressions that are offensive, such as European bureaucrats and British politicians.This article explored the main topics that dominated the Russian information space. We also analyzed the key people mentioned in the Russian media. The monitoring summarizes our previous studies on the attitude of propaganda towards the United States after the presidential election and on the coverage of peace talks between Russia and Ukraine in the Russian mediaЧитати українською

Spoonful of hate. Online violence against Ukrainian female journalists in YouTube comments

“Hahahaha. That lady is just a stupid chicken!” — such comments aren’t uncommon under YouTube videos of various media outlets in Ukraine. Aggression, harassment, sexism, and threats against journalists are all examples of gender-based violence online. Although YouTube has strict policies against hate speech, its moderation algorithms often miss it, removing hundreds of thousands pieces of content but leaving “just a stupid chicken” under videos from Ukrainian media. This may be due to the imperfection of the algorithms themselves or problems with “understanding” the Ukrainian language.
