Moscow reports reveal Vremya nightly news operates as a state mission with 180 staff delivering 30 minutes of officially sourced programs seen by about 120 million. Lubovtsev defends propaganda as a journalistic function while noting selective coverage, including Brezhnev’s travels and international news, with heavy emphasis on official reports and limited independent verification.
