program
Rossija 24 broadcasts a 24-hour news-only program every day. The channel has been criticized primarily for its one-sided reporting that is critical of the Kremlin. Another difference to western, above all private, news channels is the greater concentration on conveying information and the lower priority of the show-like presentation of news or the selection of news topics. In doing so, the broadcaster is primarily trying to consolidate its claim as a channel for the Russian elite.
