The story of western correspondents in Russia is the story of
Russia’s attitude to the west. Russia has at different times been
alternately open to western ideas and contacts, cautious and
distant or, for much of the twentieth century, all but closed off.
From the revolutionary period of the First World War onwards,
correspondents in Russia have striven to tell the story of a
country known to few outsiders. Their stories have not always been
well received by political elites, audiences, and even editors in
their own countries—but their accounts have been a huge influence
on how the West understands Russia. Not always perfect, at times
downright misleading, they have, overall, been immensely valuable.
In Assignment Moscow, former foreign correspondent James Rodgers
analyses the news coverage of Russia throughout history, from the
coverage of the siege of the Winter Palace and a plot to kill
Stalin, to the Chernobyl explosion and the Salisbury poison
scandal.
