Vitali Belobrovtsev, a lecturer at Tallinn University, said the channel, which is planned to begin next year, has to offer viewers something they have been missing. He said the only edge it would have over competitors is that it would talk about what is happening in Estonia – with local people about local events.
Indrek Ibrus, an adviser on audiovisual media to the Estonian Ministry of Culture and a research fellow at Tallinn University, said there is currently no Russian-language channel that provides an objective look at life in Estonia. “They do not do it a way which would help the Russian-language population of Estonia. They talk about life in Russia and elsewhere in the world.”
