Comment: Ilya Klishin Vlad Chernavin (talk) 16:01, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
Ilia Klishin (also spelled Ilya Klishin) is a Russian journalist and editor. He is known for his role in the use of social media during the 2011–2012 Russian protest movement and for his later work in digital editorial roles at TV Rain.[1][2][3]
2011–2012 protest movement
editDuring the protests that followed the 2011 Russian legislative election, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty described Klishin as a Moscow-based journalist and blogger who used Facebook to list an opposition protest planned for 10 December 2011.[1] In a later article, the same outlet wrote that Klishin had used Facebook's event tools to help mobilize the protest on Bolotnaya Square.[4]
The role of Klishin's Facebook event page was also discussed in academic literature on the 2011–2012 Russian protest movement. Kristen Meredith wrote in St Antony's International Review that Klishin had used Facebook to organize an anti-electoral-fraud protest in Moscow and that the event page received more than 30,000 acceptances in two days.[5]
In 2015, The Guardian reported that, after the State Duma elections, Klishin had set up a Facebook page to help organize protests and that tens of thousands of people had signed up for an event calling for a gathering on Bolotnaya Square.[2] The same article described him as editor-in-chief of TV Rain's website and as a specialist in social networks who had tracked pro-Kremlin online activity.[2]
In 2012, Human Rights Watch reported that officials from the Federal Security Service and Center "E" had contacted Klishin's parents in Tambov while asking about his political activities.[6]
TV Rain
editIn 2015, The Guardian included Klishin in its "30 under 30: Moscow's young power list", describing him as the online editor-in-chief of TV Rain, which the newspaper characterized as an independent news channel in a state-dominated Russian media market.[7]
In 2016, Nieman Journalism Lab identified Klishin as editor-in-chief of TV Rain's website in a feature on the channel's subscription strategy. The article quoted him on the role of subscriptions after TV Rain was removed from major cable networks and on the channel's shift toward online distribution.[3]
The same year, Voice of America described Klishin as TV Rain's digital media chief in a report on pressure against the broadcaster. The article quoted him on the political pressure surrounding TV Rain and on the effect of Russian media and speech laws on the channel's coverage.[8]
Later work
editIn 2019, Meduza referred to Klishin as digital director of RTVI while summarizing his commentary on changes in Russia's media environment.[9]
In 2025, Meduza reported that the émigré media outlet Volna had been created in 2022 by journalists including Klishin, whom it described as a media expert and former editor-in-chief of TV Rain's website.[10]
