TV Channel Vesti 24 Information
VESTI is both national and international 24/7 Russian-language news channel covering major national and international events with a Russian perspective and a focus on domestic issues. Against the backdrop of world updates we aspire to give a broad and impartial outline of life in all of Russia’s regions from its European enclave of Kaliningrad to Vladivostok in the Far East.
Vesti is a part of RTR, the biggest Russian media corporation. Russian Television and Radio Broadcasting Company (RTR), Russia’s leading broadcaster and content provider, is a major media holding relying on the resources of 87 regional branches and 3 nation-wide channels (Rossiya, Kultura and Sport) and two international channels RTR-Planeta and Planeta-Sport.
In response to the increasing demand for ethnic news from the established audiences in Russian-speaking communities across the globe, RTR has decided to come up with a new product.
VESTI’s daily schedule is built on the usual hourly rotation with ten-minute bulletins on major national and international news every half an hour complimented alternately with business, sport and culture. The distinctive feature of the VESTI channel is up to 20 minutes of regional coverage each hour including detailed analysis of the local events that make the headlines across the country, from election results and high-profile investigations to scientific breakthroughs and nation-wide celebrations. While follow-ups of minor developments from the reliable fleet of experienced correspondents are sewed together into the diverse patchwork of everyday life in Russia.
