The collapse of MTS - or the quality of Russian journalism

    Every day I start my day by reading the newspaper RBC-Daily. In general, I like the newspaper, but recently many articles have appeared with blatant errors. So today, after reading a couple of lines of one of the articles, you might think that the mobile operator MTS is on the verge of bankruptcy. ( http://www.rbcdaily.ru/2009/03/20/media/406879 ) The

    article begins with the following sentence: How can you print articles in business publications and not check the numbers ... A debt of $ 630 billion reads like “MTS bankrupt". Interestingly, MTS will “give a hat” to the newspaper for an error in an article that could lead to an unintentional collapse of their shares?

    МТС хочет перенести выплату долга в 630 млрд долл. со второго квартала 2009-го на 2012 год — соответствующие переговоры компания ведет с банкирами.
