New York. Smart hotel. Candles around burn. Men in
Dress coats, women in evening dresses - the Lady end gentlemen...
The award of a name of Artem Borovika is handed over to the Russian journalist
To Vitaly Tcherkasov for the outstanding reporting, for boldness,
Insight, aggression and independence of thinking in

So ceremony of delivery of the award of Artem has begun on April, 25th

The international press club of the USA, to the journalist from Chita to Vitaly
To Tcherkasov. This award is awarded already to the second Russian
To the journalist: "For courage in journalism".
At first it is a little about the award. After tragical death
Artem Borovika broadcasting company CBS together with a number
The American mass-media has decided to create his name award. Idea of the award
Consisted in giving due Boroviku, to its courageous
To illumination of events in Russia in the spirit of publicity. The name award
Artem Borovika it is founded for "encouragements courageous and
Fair reportings "in Russia.
Now about the winner of the award of Artem Borovika. To them became, with
One party, the young journalist, with another -
Pensioner-inspector Vitaly Tcherkasov. And here is how it
It has turned out. Vitaly to itself prespokojnenko worked on
To restless job. There was it the inspector in the city of Chita. At
The inspector was a hobby - to write. Vitaly on close to it wrote
Criminal subjects. And all has begun with the innocent newspaper for
Condemned "Resonance" in which Vitaly edified with the help
Printing word on a way true prisoners. All life
Inspector Tcherkasov was changed by one criminal case. Two
The person from local grouping have shot in an emphasis of the young
Guys. The court of gangsters has justified. Vitaly at heart
Was indignant, has put them on the wanted list and has submitted the official report about an exit on
Pension. On it career of the inspector has safely ended,
But career of the journalist has begun. Vitaly began to work
The correspondent of department of journalistic investigations (by the way,
The only thing in a city) newspapers "Effect". And here those have begun
The dangers for which Vitaly has received the award later.
The important problems of a city which all held back, steels
Subjects of "Effect" and materials of correspondent Tcherkasov.
For example, a drug-dealing subject in Chita. To readers inform number
"Hot phone" on which chitintsy it is very active
Tell about purchase and sale places "opium for the people".
Strange, the people know, and the militia is not present. The following global
City problem about which aloud the first Tcherkasov has started talking, -
Children's racket. Teenagers collect a tribute from the contemporaries
For "starving friends in prison". A tribute to give it is necessary, not that
It will be bad. Also bear from the house money, sugar, cigarettes. All about
To problem know and are silent. Silence has ended with tragedy.
One meticulous extortioner killed a knife - has got. One more
Murder of the employee became an occasion to Tcherkasov's reporting
Bodies. In all press of a city molchok. "It is a call
To the state ", - Vitaly and the beginnings the journalistic has thought
Investigation. From Office of Public Prosecutor calls fell down: "you create
To itself a difficult life ". Invitations to press conferences
Have ended. After Tcherkasov has learnt, that to the murderer
The employee on court was nothing, he through edition has addressed
With the request for support to readers also has again organised
"A hot line" on a subject: "What price of a human life".
Squall of calls, in a society a resonance. And someone wished to hold back. And
Here Vitaly's these materials considered at competition.
- I have sent articles in broadcasting company CBS in the winter and have forgotten.
Suddenly at home the call is distributed: "Moscow bureau CBS, we hope,
You guess in what occasion? "At me it was drove in
Heart. We left on world level, and now all is more difficult
Begins not to notice our publications in a press, - it is joyful
The winner of award Borovika ascertains.
