Yesterday #НАБУ and #САП published recordings of conversations as part of the special operation “Forrest Gump.” According to the investigation, this concerns a scheme to legalize 150 million UAH, which were used to post bail for former energy minister Herman Halushchenko. Among the case’s figures are: Deputy Head of the Office of the President Iryna Mudra, MP Vadym Stolar, former MP Maksym Mykytas, and others. But the funniest part of this story is the reaction of the million-channel outlets, which are so eager to push the presidential office’s talking points that smoke is coming out of them. INSIDER UA first posted that the NABU case related to an old case about raiding, falsifying documents, and the bail for Halushchenko; then a post appeared with details about 150 million and Mudra, but that post was deleted after 5 minutes. Later the channel wrote about Mudra’s arrest, but that post disappeared too. On Times of Ukraine the plot unfolded similarly: they ran the raiding version, and the post about Mudra’s arrest was quietly removed. And on Trukhy the picture is downright masterful: they first ran a story about Mudra’s dismissal under a Zelensky decree, and then promptly added a post quoting a lawyer saying that no one had actually been arrested.
