Russia’s Fearless Independent Paper Novaya Gazeta Shuts Down After 30-Year Run
Novaya Gazeta, Russia's most prominent independent newspaper, closes after three decades of reporting on the country's increasing state repression.
POLICY WIRE — Moscow, Russia — Novaya Gazeta, a publication widely regarded as Russia’s most courageous news outlet, has ceased operations after spanning more than three decades of journalism.
The newspaper spent its long history documenting a landscape of increasingly restrictive governance within the country. One member of the journalistic team noted that the efforts to suppress their reporting actually began many years ago.
