[Ted Byfield <tedbyfield@gmail.com>]

via Facebook. I have no idea if this is true, but if it is it should be an opportunity to see a bit more clearly whether Dugin is really so significant.

Alexander Dugin has been appointed General Director of Channel One.

At an emergency meeting, the Board of Directors of Channel One decided to terminate the contract with Constantine Ernst.

A well-known Russian philosopher and political scientist Alexander Dugin has been appointed as the new general director of "Pervogo".

"For me, this assignment became a pleasant surprise. I am a faithful son of Russia and the Russian people, who have now finally begun to wake up. My front is an information war. I will expel the entire Russophobic element from the state, all these liberals, comedians and once and for all I will end the stench and stupid shows," the philosopher said.

Dugin added that all employees of the channel will have a personal interview with him, and his colleagues from the Eurasian Youth Union will analyze their social media pages. After this, a decision on the termination of the employment contract may be made.

In addition, in the broadcast network "First Channel" in early April there will be new programs - "Project Eurasia", "Conservative Revolution" and "The Theory of the Multipolar World", which will be the director himself.
