Of All Dangers Free Information Is For Us the Most Terrible 

Contrary to all the ruling circle's wishes, there still are some mass media that do not support the President. Until now the fight against them and their founders was conducted on an amateur level - some would turn out to be sex maniacs, while others would be called to account for injuring the honor and dignity of the Presidential Chief of Staff, ministers, and regular presidential aides. If it came out from whom and where such miscreants get their financing, they would be able to launch a conveyor belt to ruin the opposition mass media. Perhaps, this is also declared and accepted in the West, but there are totally different means of political struggle there. Volodymyr Horbulin said when commenting the draft law, "I see no violation of human rights here... Money is laundered and then invested into the mass media, a sector that can pay this money back very quickly (it would be interesting to find some examples -Ed.). If a person really wants to found a newspaper or receive a license to broadcast on television or radio, then why can't he register his money legally?"

If the honored secretary of the NDSC is so well-informed about the situation on the information market, it could be interesting to hear his comments about why well-known information magnate Vadym Rabinovych broke off all relations with the 1+1 channel. As we know, channel management announced through friendly newspapers that they also had severed relations with advertising structures close to Rabinovych. Horbulin, who has never been considered a close friend of Rabinovych, refused comment: "I think, it is important that this channel works as an independent creative structure - then there will be no questions to me." But there still are some, and they were not answered.
