There was no "stony indifference" to the Nemtsov-Milov texts. There was a massive hysteria, questions along the lines of, "How much money should we give them to make them shut up?", the forced suspension of Nemtsov's membership in SPS (the Union of Right Forces, a Russian political party), a strict ban on distributing the printed version of the report, and on any mention of it in the media under threat of reprisals. *Even on Echo of Moscow (a Russian radio station), discussion of the report, if you haven't noticed, is always quickly cut short by the hosts ("That's a separate topic, we'll talk about it later"), except on Yevgeny Kiselyov's programs. *http://ej.ru/?a=note&id=7940 Only the brave Yevgeny Kiselyov is not afraid of the authoritarian pro-Kremlin Venediktov. And I wonder, how much were they actually offering "to make them shut up"?
