Rationalizing censored reporting in today's Russia How well do you understand Russian journalism? Take the quiz

Russia is hardly the only country where journalists face censorship, but the subject of what reporters can and cannot report has become a kind of leading news story itself. Meduza has reported extensively on the recent dismantling of the top management at RBC, one of Russia's best respected and most fiercely independent major news organizations. Last month, we published a leaked transcript of the conversation RBC's new editors had with staff, where the issue of censorship was front and center. This month, we interviewed the new chief editor of Russian Esquire, who spoke about boundaries in journalism today and the relationship between reporting and politics. In this quiz, we test your grasp of how Russian journalists rationalize their work in the context of today's censorship.
