Scandals
On February 26, 2011, journalist Dmitry Gubin, who hosted the program "Morning with Dmitry Gubin" at the radio station, announced in his LiveJournal about his dismissal from the radio station. The reason was his criticism of the governor of St. Petersburg Valentina Matvienko. The official reason for the dismissal was the violation of a one-month work contract. At the same time, the general producer of the radio station, Anatoly Kuzichev, said that the dismissal of the presenter was caused by "stylistic differences."
In June 2017, a fragment of the Full Contact radio program caused a wide public outcry in Russia, in which its presenter Vladimir Solovyov called the participants in the anti-corruption rally in Moscow on Tverskaya, which the authorities consider uncoordinated, “eternal two percent of shit”, “children of corrupt officials” and "Major assholes", and also said that "if it were not for the police, the people would have simply torn to pieces." This statement was criticized by the protesters. Alexander Nevzorov gave a critical review of this situation. Solovyov continued to use harsh value judgments and remarks addressed to some listeners and opposition-minded Russian journalists in the following programs.
