Personal life

The personal life of Dmitry Kiselyov has always remained very eventful. There were many women, official and unofficial marriages in it. The first wife of the TV presenter was classmate Alena, with whom 17-year-old Dima studied at a medical school. Young people officially got married, but broke up without having lived even a year.

Now Dmitry and Maria already have two joint children - Konstantin and Varvara. The family lives in a "Scandinavian" house built according to the project of Kiselyov in the Moscow region.

There is a video on the Internet where you say that a journalist should not be an agitator. Do you consider yourself a journalist now?

My position has changed. I am different now. Some of the conclusions about what Putin did [with me as] a person are shocking. In fact, my evolution took place not in Russia, but in Ukraine, where I worked from 2000 to 2006 and saw this “orange revolution”. I was the editor-in-chief of the information service on the ICTV channel there, I had an author's program that received the highest television award "Golden Pen", for a couple of years I formally even entered the hundred most influential people in Ukraine, in a word, I was a highly profiled character. And I really went through an internal evolution there without the influence of Putin.

I realized that distilled, distilled journalism is absolutely not in demand. The main difference between post-Soviet journalism and Western journalism is that we have to create values, not recreate them. Produce values, not reproduce them, as is done mainly in the West.

Unfortunately, we left the 20th century with huge amount victims, and lived in periods when human life was devalued, and got used to it. And now human life is not a great value, otherwise we would fasten the straps in the car, and not throw it on for the traffic police until now. Our children are not a common value, otherwise there would not be a million abortions a year in Russia. We do not have a consensus around the simplest, basic values not to mention the complex values ​​of society, such as our proper models of democracy. Therefore, a journalist in Russia, Ukraine, of course, must produce them. Such is his responsibility. If Western journalists were in our place, they would do the same, they would colonize and civilize their own country. So the detached journalism that I was an adherent of is not that. There were calls back in the nineties, when I hosted the National Interest program.

Once I made a program about vodka in the alignment of Russia's national interests. Vodka like national pride and national curse. I then went in for horse riding, came to the stable, and the groom says to me: “ good program did". Me: “Yes? You watched?" I am reserved about compliments and criticism. He continues: "But he did not say the most important thing." But in my studio there were a cloud of historians, anonymous alcoholics, the Kristall plant, and so on. "What?" I ask the groom. And he: "Which one to take?" That is - to buy something what? Like, if you are sitting there on TV, then if you please, tell me which one to take. So I think that journalism should, of course, be with a position. There is also a place for agitation.

I understand correctly that in your analytical program you are broadcasting own opinion?
