‘Russkiy Reporter has been selling much better than Russkiy Newsweek for quite a while now. Strictly speaking, the sales of the latter haven’t dropped or anything, but they haven’t been going up, either,’ Chitai Gorod Ltd. Marketing Director Tatiana Solodnikova said to UrBC.

Russkiy Reporter’s first issue saw the light in Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, Rostov-on-Don, and Samara on May 17, 2007, accompanied by large-scale marketing and advertising campaigns. Experts observe it may be because of Russkiy Reporter that Russkiy Newsweek is now selling worse.
