Why was Malakhov removed from Channel 1? A year later, it became known why Malakhov was kicked out of Channel One. Why Sweden stopped prosecuting Assange

TV presenter Andrei Malakhov told only a year later why he left Channel One. The journalist confirmed some of the theories that began to appear back in July last year.

Last year, news appeared about Andrei Malakhov’s departure from Channel One. Since July 2017, many versions have been built about the departure (or dismissal) of the journalist. Only now it became clear why Malakhov was kicked out of Channel One. The TV presenter himself told about everything.

The journalist didn’t really want to talk to his colleagues from the Dozhd TV channel about this topic. A lot has changed over the year. Malakhov changed the channel, launched his own (and successful) project on YouTube and seemed to have forgotten about Channel One. But colleagues asked the TV presenter to remember the past.

Malakhov confirmed that the reason for his departure from Channel One lies in disagreements. The TV presenter, according to him, was laying “golden eggs” for the company and did not ask for anything. The journalist only wanted proper treatment. Apparently, Malakhov did not get what he wanted, which was the reason for leaving Channel One. The TV presenter did not specify whether he himself left his previous place of work or was kicked out.

Malakhov considers his successor a talented journalist. According to the TV presenter, Dmitry Borisov should have become a superstar over the past year. Nevertheless, the journalist prefers not to meet with his colleague. Malakhov does not watch episodes of the “Let Them Talk” program with the participation of Borisov.

Versions about why Malakhov was kicked out of Channel One

In July last year, different versions began to appear about why Malakhov was kicked out of Channel One. The main reason was cited by the media as the journalist’s disagreement with the new producer of the Let Them Talk program, Natalya Nikonova. The TV presenter wanted to take maternity leave because his wife was pregnant at the time. However, the leadership presented Malakhov with a choice - either a maternity leave or a channel.

There is another version why the journalist left Channel One. This version is also connected with Nikonova. The media learned that Malakhova’s new leader wanted to dilute his program with socio-political topics. There were many disagreements in working matters between Nikonova and Malakhov, which is why the latter had to leave.

The episode was never aired, and Ernst kicked me out of the first episode. But I still publish this program in an abbreviated version and in text. The main meaning of the program is conveyed correctly.

Why do pharmacies offer outdated and dangerous medications, while hiding from people the truth about a new drug from the Research Institute of Rheumatology named after. V.A. Nasonova, which is distributed at the expense of the research institute budget. How is it that the pharmacy mafia makes hundreds of millions on people’s health, ruining their vision?

For a conversation, we invited the chief specialist of the research institute, Lyudmila Antonova, to the studio.

Andrey Malakhov: “Lyudmila Viktorovna, how do you assess the situation with the danger of diseases associated with vision?”

Lyudmila Antonova : Many people believe that poor vision is not a very dangerous type of disease, which only threatens the loss of part of the image. This is a fundamentally wrong opinion. Poor and blurred vision with age or with pathology is extremely dangerous and even at an early stage of development, can kill a person and make him blind. Firstly, any vision disease is a precancerous disease. Even at an early stage, conjunctivitis can lead to the formation of a cancerous tumor. Most often it is bone marrow cancer or blood cancer. Both are extremely difficult to treat and fatal. This is perhaps the most underestimated complication in terms of its danger that occurs in people with poor and poor eyesight. Secondly, Blurred vision often causes a person to go completely blind. Sudden loss of vision in one of the eyes, distant or near images are not visible - this is a very common complication that occurs in many patients. Going blind essentially condemns the patient to existence as a “sentient vegetable.” Which is not much different from death. Third, a banal decrease in visual acuity can “close” vision completely and cause complications in any organ - from the liver to the heart. The brain is the basis of the central nervous system. And if it is violated, malfunctions in the functioning of internal organs occur, which can lead to a wide variety of complications.

Andrey Malakhov: “So everyone who has poor and blurry vision is in danger?”

Lyudmila Antonova : Among specialists, vision diseases are considered one of the most dangerous. Unlike many other diseases that occur in humans, they do not lead to some temporary health problems, but only develop progressively, gradually leading the person to the grave.

Vision diseases are the cause of millions of people with blindness. It's like a time bomb that won't necessarily go off right away, but with a 100% chance it will explode sooner or later. In addition, the situation with poor vision is such that at the first stage the patient cannot distinguish the disease from the usual symptoms that come with age. He realizes the problem when the disease has already spread throughout the body and it is essentially too late to treat it.

Every year in Russia, hundreds of thousands of people go blind from reduced visual acuity, caused precisely by diseases with age. Each of them suffers terribly. Patients over 40 years of age are at particular risk.

The worst thing is that until recently there was no effective way to prevent the onset of blindness. If a person had a disease in a moderate or severe stage, then the most that medicine could offer him was medications that relieve symptoms. No more.

Andrey Malakhov: “How are vision-related diseases treated now? "

Lyudmila Antonova : In most cases, patients are offered treatment with chondoprotectors and other drugs that, with the best results, can slow down the development of a particular disease, nothing more. In some cases, people are treated with injections or surgery.

The first option (chondoprotectors and other tablets) is essentially useless. The second and third are extremely dangerous. Injections can only remove pain and slightly increase clarity, without in any way affecting the disease itself.

As a result, a person will begin to see 15 percent better and thinks that everything is fine, while a retinal disease may already be developing in the body. And operations on the retina very often result in disability or other serious complications. They are indicated only in the most extreme cases.

It is precisely because of the low effectiveness of the classical approach to treatment that the minds of specialists have always been occupied with the development of a drug that can truly treat vision and return people to health. At the V.A. Nasonova Research Institute, we have created the first medicine of its kind that can truly restore vision.

Andrey Malakhov: “Can you tell us about him?”

Lyudmila Antonova : Certainly. This is “Optivision” - a unique drug that so far has no analogues both abroad and in Russia.

At the moment, Optivision has undergone clinical trials and has shown extremely high rates of effectiveness. It helps even in advanced and severe cases, restoring vision and returning it to a healthy state. The medicine is unique in its characteristics. No other drug can effectively restore poor vision, returning a person to a completely healthy state.

In addition to Russia, he successfully completed clinical trials in Switzerland and the USA. But until we provide it to the entire population of Russia, it will only be available within the country.

Andrey Malakhov: “How did it happen that such a drug is not allowed in pharmacies? "

Lyudmila Antonova : The fact is that the research institute is not engaged in commercial activities. AND We do not sell the drug, but distribute it for a purely symbolic price, as part of a special program. This is precisely the main conflict with pharmacy chains. They want to make money from sick people, squeezing the maximum out of them; even old and ineffective medicines, for example, Blueberry Forte, are ideal for this. While our drug not only solves the problem forever, it is also distributed virtually free of charge.

However, we found a way out of the situation - the research institute’s specialists created a special website where you can submit a request for “Optivision” and receive it. All you need to do is simply leave your name and contact information. After this, you will be contacted to confirm a convenient delivery time. We tried to make everything as simple as possible so that everyone could get medicine, even if they had never ordered anything online before.

Andrey Malakhov: “In addition to you, Viktor Sedelnikov, the main ophthalmologist in Russia, is present in the studio today. Question for you Viktor Fedorovich - why is it that a unique medicine created in Russia and distributed at such a price does not reach the population?”

Victor Sedelnikov : Andrey, I want to note that despite the position, the chief ophthalmologist is mainly involved in the coordination of scientific research and strategic issues. I have no influence on commercial pharmacy chains. All I can do is recommend some drug to them.

Of course, Optivision was recommended by me. Actually, the entire scientific community understands what a colossal breakthrough in the field of vision treatment has been made. To my deep regret, pharmacy chains did not react in any way. Which is generally understandable and logical, since in the event of mass distribution of the drug, they will suffer multimillion-dollar losses.

We are currently exploring the issue of distributing Optivision through public clinics and hospitals. There are indeed bureaucratic problems, but I hope that the issue will be resolved within the next 10-12 months.

Andrey Malakhov: “It turns out that at least another year will pass before Optivision appears in clinics. What should people do until doctors see him? "

Victor Sedelnikov : The research institute has an official website for the project, where anyone can leave a request and receive “Optivision drops.” For now, the only way out is to use it. Moreover, as far as I understand, they deliver the drug very quickly and are able to reach any number of people.

Lyudmila Antonova : A small note about “any number of people.” At the moment, the research institute does not have enough production volumes to cover the entire country. Therefore, we alternately hold promotions in different regions of the Russian Federation. At the current time, the drug can be obtained not only in the city of Moscow, but throughout Russia. There the program will be valid until November 25, 2018.

Andrey Malakhov: “What can you say goodbye to our viewers? "

Lyudmila Antonova : I want to draw the attention of readers to the fact that diseases of vision and the retina are “getting younger”, as many began to spend their time looking at the monitor and on the phone. There is no need to wait until bone marrow cancer appears or your visual acuity decreases and you will simply wait for your blindness.

Important! It was concluded that October and November are the best time to begin treatment for eye diseases. By stabilizing the average temperature, metabolism accelerates, blood circulation in the body increases, the flow of blood and oxygen to internal organs increases, and the effect of using the drug increases. Recovery from blurred vision and related diseases occurs 67% faster than it would have happened at other times of the year. Restoration of body functions occurs 100% during the entire course of treatment.

Recently, rumors appeared in the media about the dismissal of Andrei Malakhov, who has been working there since 1992, from Channel One. According to Ruposters, the TV presenter decided to leave for VGTRK. For more than 10 years he has been the host of one of the highest-rated shows in the country, “Let Them Talk,” and for many Malakhov’s fans this news became a sensation. However, neither Andrei himself nor the management of Channel One comment on this news in any way.

However, new information appeared in the media. According to the Russian BBC Service, Andrei is leaving for VGTRK due to the decision of the management of Channel One to add more political topics to the air of the “Let Them Talk” program. As it turned out, in May of this year, Natalya Nikonova returned to the channel, who previously worked on Malakhov’s show, but left there and became the producer of the “Live Broadcast” program on “Russia 1”. It was after her return that the conflict began between the TV presenter and the channel’s management.

“Nikonova returned to the First to shake up the socio-political bloc before the presidential elections.<…>When she arrived, everyone didn’t really understand what was happening. There was no conflict as such, but everyone was tense. She did a “Live broadcast” on “Russia 1”. And this is s***. The editors don’t want to do shit,” said an interlocutor of the BBC Russian Service.

The source also noted that no one has yet written a letter of resignation, but on the sidelines they are already discussing that “Evening News” announcer Dmitry Borisov and Dmitry Shepelev, who recently began hosting a new show on the First “Actually,” are trying to replace Malakhov. It is worth noting that none of them confirmed or denied this information.

I took it at the beginning of summer. And the contract with the employer ended on December 31, 2016 - and the TV presenter did not want to renew it. Malakhov informed the producer of the program “Let Them Talk” a month in advance.

“But somehow everyone didn’t believe it,” the TV presenter said in an interview with the Kommersant newspaper. - And on the first day of vacation I wrote Konstantin Ernst a letter saying “I’m tired, I’m leaving.”

Malakhov sent an official statement of resignation to the management of the channel by Russian Post, since at that time he was not in Moscow. Alas, some people took this act of Andrei incorrectly.

Andrei Malakhov said that his departure from Channel One had nothing to do with the transition to Rossiya 1. The TV presenter began to consider offers for a new job only after his story on First was already completed.

“I was even offered to host Dom-2.” We decided it would be a good show if it were in the Seychelles. Then there was an offer from a new big project at STS. The reaction of my colleagues was interesting. Vadim Takmenev (chief editor of NTV infotainment programs) called on the second day after submitting the application, we talked about television life, and he could not believe that I was leaving,” says Malakhov. - But when an incredible corset comes across the country, which, let's be honest, won the last TV season, and you are invited, realizing that you are clearly not a fool on television, then you feel respect and understand that here you are no longer the boy who makes coffee".

On “Russia 1” Malakhov will not only be the host of “Live Broadcast”, but also the producer of the program:

“My wife calls me boss baby. It’s clear that television is a team story, but the producer has the final say.”

Andrey Malakhov named the main reasons for his transition to a new job:

« This is a series of different events in life. I came to Ostankino as a student for an internship and stood for three hours waiting for my pass. I was fascinated by this big world and started by running for coffee during the day and going to the stall for vodka for television legends at night. And although you have become a popular TV presenter, you still work with the same people who treat you like the son of the regiment. This is a situation where your colleagues came much later, but already have their own projects. And you still have the same old status. You are expected to be the “talkie” presenter, but you already have something to talk about with your viewers.

It’s like in family life: at first there was love, then it grew into a habit, and at some point it was a marriage of convenience. My contract with Channel One ended on December 31, 2016 and was not renewed - everyone was so used to me being here. I want to grow, to become a producer, a person who makes decisions, including determining what my program should be about, and not giving up my whole life and looking like a puppy into the eyes of people changing during this time. The TV season ended, I decided that I needed to close this door and try myself in a new capacity in a new place.”

Andrei Malakhov also wrote an open letter to his former colleagues in Starhit. Here are excerpts from it:

"Dear friends!

In our digital era, the epistolary genre is used extremely rarely, but I came to Channel One in the last century, when people still wrote letters to each other, not text messages. So forgive me for such a long message. I dare to hope that you know the true reasons for my unexpected transfer to “Russia 1”, where I will host the new program “Andrei Malakhov. Live broadcast”, working on a Saturday show and other projects.

I remember the day when I crossed the threshold of the Vremya program as an intern and saw big television from the inside for the first time. From that “ice age”, only 91-year-old Kaleria Kislova (former chief director of the “Time” program) remained. - Note from StarHit). Kaleria Venediktovna, colleagues still talk about you with aspiration. People who could “build” ;-) everyone – both presidents and top officials of the state – will no longer be seen on TV. You are an example of the highest professionalism!

From the amazing past, I will also miss Kirill Kleimenov, who stands at the helm of news broadcasting today. We started together on the Good Morning program. Kirill then read the morning news, and today he has a huge responsibility on his shoulders, he practically lives in the Television Center. Kirill, for me you are an example of self-denial in the name of your favorite business, and there is the highest justice in the fact that you got the office with the most beautiful view of the ancient Ostankino Park. I also admire that you can easily communicate even in such a complex language as Finnish. When conjugating verbs in my “easy” French classes, I always think of you.

Head of the First Channel company. World Wide Web,” my classmate and classmate at Moscow State University Lesha Efimov, you remember how you and I flew to open the channel’s broadcasts in Canada and Australia? Sorry we couldn't resume our business trips.

Your deputy and my good friend is news anchor Dmitry Borisov.

Dima, all my hope is in you! The other day I saw fragments of “Let Them Talk” with your participation. I'm sure you will succeed!

Some of the main creators of my style are: Tatiana Mikhalkova and the super team of the image studio “Russian Silhouette”! How many hairstyles Regina Avdimova and her magical masters did, in a matter of minutes. I think this could not have happened without the help of the collection of frogs that Reginochka collects for good luck.

My dear 14th studio! I recently watched with tears in my eyes as it was dismantled. Wonderful design, invented by the chief artist of Channel One, Dmitry Likin. Who can do better, endow the scenery with the same internal energy?! Dima is generally a very versatile person. The interiors of the Moscow Pioneer cinema and the embankment of the Muzeon art park are also his creations. I am also grateful to Dmitry for being one of the first to infect me with a love for contemporary art, and this added an incredible cascade of emotions to my life.

My beloved Catherines! “Sister-Capricorn” Katya Mtsituridze! Sorry for not telling you personally, but as a person working on the channel and heading Roskino, you understand: I need to grow and move forward. Katyusha Andreeva, you have a cool page on Instagram, and special respect for your likes. Katya Strizhenova, how many events, starting with “Good morning”, holidays, concerts, our “sweet couple” has endured ;-) – it’s impossible to count!

The main music producer of the channel, Yuri Aksyuta, you and I also have a rich experience of TV hours spent together. “Eurovision”, “New Year’s Lights”, “Two Stars”, “Golden Gramophone” - that was recently, that was a long time ago... You brought me to the big stage: our duet with Masha Rasputina still does not allow envious people to sleep peacefully.

Lenochka Malysheva, you were the person who first called in excitement, refusing to believe what was happening. But you need to develop, you, as the producer of your own program, understand this better than others. And if at the same time I brought you up to a new broadcast topic called “The first manifestations of male menopause” ;-), that’s also good.

And if we continue to joke, another producer of his own show understands me well - Ivan Urgant. Vanya, thank you for the numerous mentions of my person and raising the ratings of that rather large part of the audience that spins spinners.

Lenochka Queen! In memory of your grandmother Lyudmila Gurchenko, to whom I promised not to abandon you in life, I still took you to work. You yourself know that you were not the most exemplary administrator. But now, having gone through the “Let Them Talk” school, I dare to hope that you won’t let me down anywhere.

And if we are talking about Maxim Galkin... Max, everyone says that I am repeating your television fate (in 2008, Galkin left Channel One for Rossiya, but returned seven years later. - Note from StarHit). I will say more, as a teenager I, a novice fan of Alla Borisovna, also dreamed of repeating your personal destiny... ;-) And one more thing. I didn’t comment on your recent video with the castle in the background, because if money had come first in this story, my transfer, as you guessed, would have happened nine years ago.

Press service of Channel One - Larisa Krymova... Lara, it was with your light hand that I became editor-in-chief of StarHit magazine. It was you who organized my first meeting with the president of the Hearst Shkulev Publishing house, Viktor Shkulev, where this magazine has been successfully published for the tenth year.

Well, in conclusion - about the owner of the main office of Ostankino, on the door of which there is a sign “10-01” attached. Dear Konstantin Lvovich! 45 years is an important milestone in a man’s life, 25 of which I gave to you and Channel One. These years have become part of my DNA and I remember every minute you dedicated to me. Thank you so much for everything you did, for the experience you shared with me, for the amazing journey along the television road of life that we went through together.

The only request is to take care of your assistants, especially Lenochka Zaitseva . She is not only a very dedicated and professional employee, but also can easily lay claim to the role of the chief psychologist of Channel One.

I wrote all this and I understand: a lot has happened in 25 years, and although I am unbearably sad now, I will remember only one thing - how good we were together. Take care of yourself and your loved ones, my beloved! God bless us!

Yours, Andrey Malakhov.”
