Thats a foolish remark. Putin's ratings are high. People in Russia really love him. So no, only in your wet dreams man.
To the OP. Bad journalism again ((
NTV is not exactly 'government owned channel'. Russian media situation is a bit compilcated. Our biggest opposition channels are mostly financed by government too.
For example 'Echo of Moscow' - the most famous opposition radio/tv in Russia with a lot of dirt over country and Putin, is owned by Gazprom Media. And Gazprom Media owned by Gasprom. And Gazprom mostly owned by government.
Its strange for me - that people who hate our country are allowed to do it with our country's money - but thats how it is.
If I'm not mistaken (which is quite possible here) NTV channel is owned by Gazprom too. It WAS oposition channel 15-12 years ago. Now its mostly a bullshit channel.
But again - I'm not an expert - cause I watch TV two times per year.
31st of December at 23:55 i'm hearing words of President congratulating our country with a New Year. Thats a Russian tradition. We staying with a glass of champaigne, listening to our president, then we have a New Year moment and we hear and singing (those who want it) our hymn.
And 9th of May I watch a military parade on a Red Square - which is mostly fantastic. Thats a tradition in my family too.
At other times - TVs in my flat are just a big screens for movies/series and games.
