Annotation
Paper analyzes how correspondents of foreign newspapers described riots in St. Petersburg on 9//22 January 1905. They announced the start of revolution in Russia.
Priests were made leaders of the movement. Pictures and photographs accompanied newspaper articles to give credibility to these statements. Father Sergius was proclaimed martyr killed aside of Gapon. Petersburg correspondent of “Daily Telegraph” Emile Dillon contributed a lot to describe events in Petersburg. European newspapers invented insurrections of workmen from the Admiralty Works at Kolpino and Sestroretsk factory. Kolpino workmen were sent to fight with the garrison of Tsarskoe Selo, and Sestroretsk workers were sent to storm Kronstadt. Russian émigré newspapers reprinted information from European papers. Russian radical newspapers and foreign papers were exchanging news and topics. The popular method of spreading news was through letters, reports and recollections of “eye-witnesses”. Articles
from Russian liberal media were praised in Europe, and reports of foreign correspondents were reprinted in Russia. The loyalty of Russian armed forces to the Russian government was of the most importance as seen from the correspondence of British embassy in St. Petersburg. European correspondents were making up stories about the insubordination in Russian army and officers attacked by soldiers. Popular topics were stories about the military abuse of intellectuals, about prosecutions of artists for civil disobedience, and about the number of casualties during the suppression of riots. Media information shaped the public opinion in Russia and its attitude to the perception of riots in Petersburg in January 1905.
