Konstantin Ernst was called to resign from the post of general director of Channel One. With such an appeal, the deputy chairman of the Moscow branch of Yabloko Kirill Goncharov made it. According to him, in an interview with Mikhail Zygarya, for the book “All Free”, Ernst actually admitted to violation of the law and censorship – before the 1996 elections, he refused to put on the air of “Channel One” Stanislav Govorukhin, who criticized Boris Yeltsin. Goncharov is sure that the cost of Yeltsin’s victory in 1996 was a modern political regime in the Russian Federation.
You can learn about the role of Konstantin Ernst in the 1996 elections from the archives of Boris Berezovsky. Conversations take place a year after the murder of Vladislav Listyev. Then Boris Yeltsin held a pre -election campaign, and concerts in Moscow were supposed to take place in his support. They were engaged in the organization by Sergey Lisovsky (the main suspect in organizing an attack on Listyev), and Igor Malashenko was supervised by the president with TV. This clearly was very annoying Ernst. The archive has a recording of the conversation between Ernst and the ORT (“Channel One”) at that time on behalf of the Berezovsky Badri Patarkatsishvili. Ernst says that he is against the “Songs of the Main” and “Naps” on Lisovsky, stating that nothing is ready (Lisovsky was just engaged in the technical side of the concert). “You told me Lisovsky, ORT, you will shoot all this. Lisovsky has no money. What money is not clear. It will be shit, we are substituted. Malashenko sets us up. He went on x … I do not obey him. I am not engaged in concerts …. There will be no real “old songs”. Artists do not want to go to Lisovsky. Malashenko says you should show it. He went to x … “, – Ernst curses.
The next entry is already said by Patarkatsishvili and Sergey Lisovsky. “I am about the“ Old Songs of the Main ”. Kostya (Ernst-ed.) Supplies me. I fought, fought, and he steps aside, ”says Lisovsky. Badri stood up for Ernst and says that there is a common opinion about the impossibility of the behavior of two concerts – at Vasilievsky descent and at the CDS. Lisovsky objects that in his plan, agreed in the Kremlin, there are two concerts. Badri refers to Berezovsky that he is categorically against. It is already difficult to argue here and then he asks him to “cover” him, so that later he was not accused of that both concerts did not pass. At the same time, Lisovsky destroys the arguments of Ernst: “To build the scenery is not a problem. They talked with the artists. 2-3 will not be, it is not so scary. ”
It turns out that it will not work to send Malashenko and Lisovsky, since they are authorized for such work by the president. Patarkatsishvili is clearly tired of Ernst’s whims and he invites him to call Malashenko and bring some convincing arguments. The voice shows that the displeased Ernst is surrendered. Badri explains that Lisovsky and Shabdurasulov “attacked” him and offers Ernst an “incentive prize”. “If there will be an opportunity for you to live in a state salary, will you go?” “I do not mind, of course,” Ernst is involved. You won’t believe it, but under Yeltsin, television managers did not have palaces on Rublevka for hundreds of millions of dollars. And the opportunity to live in a state gad was a significant bonus for them. Now everything has changed …
