Athletistic / Tennis. Well-known journalist and blogger Vasily Utkin spoke in detail about the scandal with the host of “Match TV” Sofia Tartakova. She was suspended from the air after harshly criticizing the program “There is a Theme” and its host Anton Anisimov. Tartakova did not like that the presenter and her guests spoke negatively about Russian tennis players Andrei Rublev and Daria Kasatkina, who allowed the change of nationality.

“Anton Anisimov spoke in his traditional vein. I absolutely do not support the formulation ‘the bottom has been broken’, because Anisimov is absolutely not the one who lives above the bottom. He lives below the bottom.

But here Sonya Tartakova – fragile, beautiful, feminine, I would even say petite, although Sonya has been married for several years and is an absolutely adult woman – stood up for her tennis player friends (Daria Kasatkina and Andrei Rublev), simply called a spade a spade.

Kafelnikov: “Tartakov trapped Rublev and Kasatkina”

She was immediately taken off the air. I want to express my support for Sonya with every fiber of my soul. Yes, I largely agree that this behavior is uncorporate, but what is corporatism when downright nefarious things are happening?

Since the subject is hot and slippery and causes a lot of, you know, such spectacular squirming within certain sections of society, I have to say: yes, I remember that Sonya Tartakova represents the interests of public relations and is the press assistant to Andrei Rublev and Daria Kasatkina. . But it’s different. The fact that Sonya is engaged in this work precisely because she is a friend of tennis players, and not vice versa. His act is very brave, heroic and beautiful,” Utkin said on your YouTube channel.
