2017: Igor Poletaev is the new head of the TV channel

On July 7, 2017, RBC PJSC announced that Igor Poletaev, a former business broadcasting editor and NTV TV presenter, became the new managing director of the RBC television channel. He replaced Elmar Murtazaev in this position.

Also on this day, Meduza sources reported that general producer Alexander Bogomolov and product director Igor Sadreev left the channel. RBC creative producer Alexander Urzhanov confirmed his intention to leave. According to Meduza, the head of the channel will also leave information service Alfia Zivere and correspondents Roman Super and Rodion Chepel. RBC-TV told the TASS agency that employees are going on “long leave,” but there are no mass layoffs.

“We respect Elmar’s decision to leave us and are very grateful to him for his work and the changes that have occurred with the TV channel. Murtazaev informed me several months ago of his desire to leave the TV channel and journalism in general, and I asked him not to make a final decision until there was a change of shareholder. Unfortunately for us, that day has come today. We wish Elmar great luck,” comments RBC General Director Nikolai Molibog.

Igor Poletaev began working as a journalist in 2000 at RBC, and in 2003 he began working on the RBC TV channel as a correspondent, editor and presenter. In 2006 he moved to NTV, where he worked as a presenter and editor.

“I started my career as a journalist at RBC and have worked on the channel since its inception, so I really appreciate and respect this brand. It will take me some time to get up to speed, get to know the team and understand the direction of development of the TV channel,” says Igor Poletaev.

2016: Murtazaev is the head of the TV channel instead of Gleb Shagun

On April 1, 2016, Elmar Murtazaev was appointed general producer of the RBC TV channel. On September 1, 2016, he was appointed managing director of RBC TV instead of Gleb Shagun, who left the company.

2015

Exclusion from public channels

In the summer of 2015, the RBC channel dropped out of the second multiplex - a package of all-Russian mandatory public digital television channels. Everyone wants to get into the multiplex, but it is very difficult (in the second multiplex there is a limited number of seats - 10, and 300 channels are vying for them). Channels are selected there according to an unclear principle. However, this gives enormous preferences: a place in a multiplex (both 1st and 2nd) obliges partners to include the channel in widespread broadcasting, which gives it the opportunity to develop its brand, make advertising more expensive, etc. Having lost its place in the second multiplex (it lost to the Spas TV channel), the TV channel lost great opportunities for development.

Sauer is trying to strengthen the oppositional orientation of RBC TV. Reut leaves the channel

“Sauer planned to sharply reduce the news broadcasting of the RBC TV channel,” claimed an informed source of Lenta.ru in January 2016. His idea was to do one newscast every three hours. Having laid off more than a hundred people at RBC, he was going to use the saved funds to organize a large opposition political talk show, like on Channel One, only “in reverse.” This was a utopia for the business of a news channel, but Sauer insisted.”

According to the source, Sauer planned to copy the model of broadcasting, editorial and editorial policy from Dozhd, because he considered this channel to be the best in Russia.

However, the president and at the same time chairman of the board of directors of RBC Sauer, allegedly without an economic justification, announced a reform of the channel. This provoked a scandal. RBC-TV left editor-in-chief Andrey Reut, who advocated the preservation of news broadcasting. Soon the owner, Mikhail Prokhorov, intervened. He didn’t like the idea of ​​creating Dozhd-2, the source says.

2014: Ban on broadcasting in Ukraine

In August 2014, the National Council of Ukraine on Television and Radio Broadcasting banned the broadcast of the RBC-TV channel.

"In the interests information security The state regulatory body recognized the content of the foreign program "RosBusinessConsulting-TV" ("RBC-TV") as such that it does not meet the requirements of the European Convention on Transfrontier Television and the current legislation of Ukraine,” the press service of the National Council notes.

The basis for the decision was allegedly based on monitoring data that recorded violations of Articles 2, 6 and 28 of the Law of Ukraine “On Information”, as well as Article 1 of the Seventh European Convention on Transfrontier Television.

As RBC-TV editor-in-chief Andrei Reut told Lenta.ru, “we cannot confirm information about the decision government agencies Ukraine, but on at the moment RBC-TV’s broadcast to Ukraine continues.” According to his information, the channel’s audience in Ukraine is lately has grown significantly.

Previously, broadcasting was already banned in Ukraine Russian TV channels, these included: “RTR-Planeta”, “NTV-Mir”, “Russia 24” and “TV Center-International”. Their ban was explained by the inconsistency of the content with local legislation.

2013

Launch of a 3D studio

From an interview with RBC CEO Sergei Lavrukhin (January 2013):

Andrey Reut appointed editor-in-chief

“We have now launched the process of changing our media registration certificate. Previously, we had a narrow topic: economics, finance, business. Now we will expand the topics of the programs. Film content will also appear on air. There will also be a sports theme,” says Irina Stankevich, head of the regional development department of RBC-TV. - The time has come, we have become cramped within those frameworks, we are changing. The whole country is watching us, and this requires expanding the content.”

Channel partners are not yet aware of the impending changes, but do not expect a sharp change in course. “We will watch with interest the changes at RBC-TV, but so far we have not received any information about a change in license. The channel is obliged to provide us with such information under the contract,” the press service of the operator Tricolor TV, whose broadcast packages include RBC-TV, told Marker.

Based on rough revenue estimates for the channel, changing formats may be the most effective move to increase profitability. But at the same time, partial format changes are unlikely to help the channel; the changes must be radical, media market participants say.

"RBC Holding in recent years experienced difficulties and was unprofitable. According to my estimates, RBC TV's revenue is $17 million per year. Despite the fact that it has existed since 2003, this is a catastrophic figure. For comparison: a channel with an audience share of 5% has about $200 million in revenue per year,” Dmitry Lesnevsky, founder of REN-TV and co-owner of The New Times magazine, explains to Marker. - I think we are talking about changing the format. Perhaps they want to make a mini-STS or mini-TV3, this will give a different financial result. For Prokhorov, as the owner of the holding, there are almost no risks here. A billionaire can afford to play around with channel formats, the share of which is only 0.2%.”
  • President of RBC OJSC Derk Sauer, who took this post in early November, considers the website and television to be the basis of RBC's business. As president, Sauer also aims to restore RBC’s good name and reputation, which were damaged, in particular, by stories about paid articles.

Editor-in-Chief Anna Uvarova is leaving the channel. Lyubimov combines the positions of editor-in-chief and general director

On December 17, 2012, it became known that several employees, including the editor-in-chief and program director, left RBC-TV by mutual agreement, which is due to the channel’s focus on creating modern and high-quality content through the efforts of a small number of people, the general director of RBC-TV told RIA Novosti Alexander Lyubimov.

Lyubimov confirmed that the channel's editor-in-chief Anna Uvarova, her first deputy Andrei Zharov, program director Ada Grigorieva, information service director Alexandra Kudryavtseva, director of the coordination and planning department Margarita Bobrovskaya and editor-in-chief of the city service Tamara Markova left RBC-TV, and at the same time noted that this happened by mutual consent.

“Over this year, we have already fired about 70 people. We are optimizing the channel, this is what I came here for, we are introducing new technologies that allow us to make the channel more efficient and of higher quality, but with less effort. We just gradually dealt with different parts of the organization of television production, Now the speech has reached the editorial office,” Lyubimov said, adding that the TV channel will soon have a new staffing schedule.

“I need people who can surprise the viewer every day,” said the general director, noting that he does not want to spoil the reputation of the employees who left the TV channel and has no complaints against them.

Lyubimov noted that the process of optimizing resources and reducing staff required improved technology.

“Now we have a completely different level, maybe even the best television center in the city in terms of speed. News goes online at a very high speed in relation to how the event happened. We have improved the quality, changed the picture, we have analytics already an hour after the events - this is how we work, and we believe that this is the need of our audience,” said Lyubimov.

According to the general director, today, “having at hand modern technologies, modern freethinker smart man capable of creating a lot of content."

Lyubimov emphasized that he did not set restrictions on the specific figure of the new staff, but was aiming at the result.

“As soon as we stabilize the situation in terms of obtaining results, so that I, as a director, are satisfied with every minute of the broadcast, then we can already say that this is personnel stabilization. Producing online media, a TV channel, where there is constant analysis of economic and political events is it’s not a linear story, you can’t immediately mark it with the number of people and you’ll most likely get it wrong,” he said.

Lyubimov noted that in 2013 RBC-TV plans to intensify the already begun process of synergy with other resources of the holding.

“We already have a number of solutions that allow us to show online analysis of markets, even for 20, even for 30 years - presenters can display this directly from the iPad in 3D technology. RBC is the largest media on the Internet, number 1 in terms of the volume of information generated , expertise for the business community. These include various sites - rbc.ru, rbc-real estate and so on. Accordingly, we will optimize these resources into such modern avant-garde television solutions,” said the general director.

He noted that as soon as he reaches his goal, he will most likely leave the TV channel.

“As soon as I understand that I am satisfied that the people who work here are doing it very well, I will most likely just leave. In general, I have been working on projects all my life,” said Lyubimov, refusing to name the time frame in which he plans to complete TV channel update. “I have a deadline, but I won’t say because the deadline may change depending on the performance of my team,” he said.

2011

Revenue growth by 24%

RBC-TV's revenue grew by 9% in the fourth quarter and by 24% in 12 months of 2011 to RUB 606 million. The growth in the channel's revenue is associated with an increase in the cost of advertising (by 15% since the beginning of the year), as well as a higher occupancy of airtime with advertising compared to 2010 (an increase of 19%). The low revenue growth rate in the fourth quarter is explained by general situation in the Russian television advertising market, when individual advertisers withdrew television budgets due to macroeconomic uncertainty.

As a result of the transformations in December 2011, the maximum rating in the entire history of RBC-TV was achieved: the total number of viewers of the channel in Russia amounted to 18.2 million people per month, an increase of 13% over the year.

German Kaplun (April 2012): We expect that the channel will become profitable in 2013. Now we need television and the press to get big budgets from our advertisers, but within five years everything will change. The only significant advertising medium will remain the Internet. It’s not just about where the audience growth is greater, it’s also about the duration of viewing. People spend more and more time on the Internet and less and less time watching TV.

“RBC Holding has experienced difficulties in recent years and was unprofitable. According to my estimates, RBC TV's revenue is $17 million per year. Despite the fact that it has existed since 2003, this is a catastrophic figure. For comparison: a channel with an audience share of 5% has about $200 million in revenue per year, explains Dmitry Lesnevsky, founder of REN-TV and co-owner of The New Times magazine (February 2012) to Marker.

Lyubimov headed RBC TV

In November 2011, the RBC holding, owned by Mikhail Prokhorov, began to actively renew itself. Then journalist and TV presenter Alexander Lyubimov was appointed to the position of General Director of RBC-TV. It was he who invited TV presenter Savik Shuster to the channel. According to RBC-TV, the program hosted by Shuster managed to increase the audience size by 1.5 times. Immediately after his appointment, Lyubimov told Marker that RBC’s strong point is the ability to quickly and efficiently monitor all world markets online. “This is the strongest brand in the business community. It is strictly targeted at the highest quality audience in Russia - those 10-15% of the audience who think freely, who are creating a new Russia... RBC produces a lot of real news - not scandalous, but truly important for representatives of the business community. This is perhaps the only channel that shows what is really happening in the country’s economy,” he said.

As of November 2011, the audience of RBC-TV in Russia was more than 17 million viewers.

Today at morning broadcast Andrei Sapunov came to the RBC TV channel as a stock market expert.
Most recently, Andrei Sapunov worked as a presenter on the RBC TV channel, and now he has visited this TV channel in the role of an expert.
One can only be happy for Andrey. He is growing professionally. This is commendable.

However, this visit by A. Sapunov made me think about the significant transformation of the RBC channel itself that has occurred in the last few years.
And it seems to me that this transformation did not happen for the better.

Previously, RBC TV was much more interesting to watch. It was “tailored for traders.”
It was truly the first and only TV channel dedicated to the stock market and the economy.

But the most important thing is that RBC had a close-knit, friendly and creative team of people who were interested in what they were doing (at least that’s what it looked like from the viewer’s point of view).
RBC has formed its own audience of television viewers who are accustomed to certain content.
Thematic programs about the market, economics, and technical analysis attracted a very specific contingent of viewers.

Now the RBC channel has changed. One gets the feeling that its owners are currently in active search- in search of new ideas, new programs, new audiences. Therefore, new programs purchased in the West appeared on the air, such as “Business Sharks”, “Star Candidate”, etc.
I’m glad that at least they decided to give up “cooking programs” in the mornings on RBC.
And when every day before the opening of trading the hosts appeared on air preparing pancakes and cappuccino in the Miele kitchen, this was not at all welcome.

I also noticed that new faces and new presenters are now increasingly appearing on RBC airwaves.
But so far they are all somehow faceless and identical.
They cannot compete with the team of the “old RBC”.
They lack charisma and creativity " former heroes ether."
The previous positive atmosphere of the channel is gradually becoming a thing of the past.

And in general in recent years RBC-TV lost a lot in personnel.

Here's a look at the stellar team that worked at RBC earlier:

Now this team has significantly improved:

And what experts once shone on the RBC TV channel!!!
I remember a quote from Lermontov: “Oh, there were people in our time, not like the current tribe.”)))
Solid “stars” of trading.
Now there are no others, and those are far away...
Let's remember just some of the former headliners of RBC broadcasts.

I sincerely hope that the management of today's RBC-TV will eventually be able to find a new face for the channel.
Although for now, judging by the changes taking place on RBC’s airwaves, there remains a high risk that the channel will not be able to acquire a new audience, but it can easily and quickly lose the old audience.

NTV presenter Igor Poletaev, who headed the editorial office of the television company's business broadcasting, became managing director of the RBC television channel, taking the place of Elmar Murtazaev, who resigned the day before. The BBC Russian service asked former colleagues what kind of person this was.

RBC employees had not previously mentioned Poletaev as a possible new head of the TV channel. His name was first announced to them on Friday morning.

For Poletaev himself, this is not the first experience of working at RBC: it was here in 2000 that he began his professional career - first in a news agency, and then on a television channel.

“Having immersed myself in the topic during three years of work as a reporter (and then as an editor), I decided to try to realize my old dream - to become a TV news anchor,” says Poletaev’s profile on the NTV website.

"On September 2, 2003, the first live broadcast of RBC-TV took place. It was also my first day in live information service, which can be described in one word - delight!" he recalled.

Poletaev began working at NTV in 2006. He came there as a business news anchor and later became one of the presenters of the "Today" news program.

The host of the Dozhd TV channel, Pavel Lobkov, who left NTV in 2011, speaks of Poletaev as an “always correct” and “very neat, tidy” colleague.

“[Poletaev] gave the impression of a broker or bank trader who suddenly went to work on television,” Lobkov said.

According to one of Poletaev’s former colleagues at NTV, he owes his career success in the first years of work to Tatyana Mitkova, who in 2014 became deputy general director and head of the channel’s news broadcasting directorate.

The BBC's interlocutor was skeptical about Poletaev's abilities as a leader. Former presenter of the RBC TV channel Andrei Shilyaev did not agree with this assessment: “Igor Poletaev is an intelligent, experienced person, he has been cooking in the television kitchen for a very long time.”

“The work of a manager is not some special profession or special education, it is a job for a person with common sense,” Shilyaev said.

Shilyaev calls his former colleague “on the one hand a maestro, on the other a mathematician.” “This is the person who can bring a little music and revive the RBC channel, which has been in search of something in recent years,” added the channel’s former presenter.

NTV editor-in-chief Alexandra Kosterina called Poletaev a professional and wished him success in his position as head of the RBC TV channel.

Who was before Poletaev

It became known the day before that this post had become vacant. On Thursday, Elmar Murtazaev, who worked as managing director of the RBC channel since 2016, announced his resignation. And on Friday, Meduza reported that many of the channel’s leading employees would allegedly leave after him.

So far, no one has written a letter of resignation, several channel employees who wished to remain anonymous told the BBC Russian Service. It's about about planned vacations, the RBC press service announced.

Employees of the “Stories of the Day” and “Prime Time” programs are going on paid leave until October. “We have indeed slightly increased the planned summer vacations for RBC TV employees,” Nikolai Molibog, general director of the RBC holding, confirmed to Vedomosti.

That part of the TV channel team that came with Murtazaev is going on a long vacation: former chief editor of Forbes.ru Alexander Bogomolov (Murtazaev was previously editor-in-chief of Forbes magazine, ex-employees of the Central Television program on NTV Alexander Urzhanov and Igor Sadreev (both came to RBC at the end of 2016), presenter Stanislav Kucher (has been hosting a special broadcast on RBC since 2017), former editor of the Finance department of the RBC publication Elena Tofanyuk, correspondents Roman Super and Rodion Chepel.

In June, the RBC holding changed its owner - now it belongs to the owner of the ESN group, Grigory Berezkin. He has not yet met with the team and did not tell them about his plans for the development of the TV channel, two employees of the holding told the BBC Russian Service. But it was obvious to Murtazaev and RBC employees that the new owner would not leave the old team on the channel.

Paid leave for three months is a kind of “parachute” for employees, say two employees of the RBC TV channel. Murtazaev has long made it clear to his employees that he will not remain working under the new owner, and that, most likely, the management of the TV channel will change. Until new plans are announced, employees are asked to take leave.

No one has announced any specific plans to change the channel's editorial policy, but employees are confident that television will show less political news.

Alisa Yarovskaya, the leader in the rating of the most seductive announcers on Russian television, is called a red-haired beast with the Sun inside. Bright and shocking, she became famous as a model, TV presenter and film actress. Sometimes Alisa is called by her second stage name - Alina Velikaya, which means that the TV star has ambitious plans for the future.

Childhood and youth

Alina Yarovikova – this is the real name of the TV personality – is a native Muscovite. Alina carefully hides her age, but for fans and nosy journalists, cracking the cache of her biography turned out to be an easy task. Yarovikova was born on December 7, 1980. According to the horoscope, Alisa Yarovskaya is Sagittarius. There is no information about the TV personality’s family. Who the parents are and whether there are brothers and sisters is unknown.

Having received a matriculation certificate from a capital school, Alisa Yarovskaya became a student at the prestigious Moscow State University, choosing the faculty of linguistics. After graduating from university, the girl spoke fluent English and French and could boast of basic knowledge of Italian. Yarovskaya has graduate school behind her: Alisa defended her dissertation, choosing the topic of the evolution of the French system of addresses.


After leaving the walls of Moscow State University, the girl found a job as a translator-referent in a capital company, where she translated notes from navigators, bills of lading, protocols of chartered ships, and kept loading diaries. The Muscovite was satisfied with the salary, but the work was not interesting or exciting. Therefore, Alina Yarovikova quit and turned into Alisa Yarovskaya, changing her name, occupation and biography.

Journalism and television

Television has a magical property of turning the person who appears on the screen into a star. Alisa Yarovskaya knew about this. Career path began on the cable channel of the Western District of the capital: the TV presenter discussed the topical problems of residents of the Krylatsky district. The bright, memorable girl was noticed and invited by the managers of the TVC channel, offering her a job in a new project.


The TV presenter took a new career step on the TNT channel, where she hosted the TV show Shopping Therapy. On another TV channel - “TDK” - she appeared in a project with the intriguing title “Sexual Revolution”. On DTV, Alisa Yarovskaya hosted the show “This Crazy World.” The TV personality did not escape her work in the news program of the Podmoskovye TV channel.
