Description
Drawing on survey data and results of focus group discussions with audience members, the paper discusses the footprint Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 and the ensuing ban on Russian state-aligned news providers has left on the news repertoires (Hasebrink and Domeyer 2012; Peters and Schrøder 2018) of Russian- speaking audiences in the Baltic countries of Latvia and Estonia, both having a sizeable Russian-speaking minority, who have long been avid users of Russian sources of news. Building on the analytical framework proposed by Vulpius et al. (2023) of news repertoire change, the paper presents various responses – strategies of news repertoire change – Russian-speakers have taken vis-à-vis the ban on Russian state-aligned news media.| Period | 23 Sept 2024 |
