Երբ «ինտելիգենտ» շրջանակներում Նունե Եսայանի անունն է արտասանվում, չգիտես ինչու ներկաների դեմքերը ծամածռվում են, ասես ահավոր անճաշակ ու անտաղանդ մեկի մասին է խոսք գնում։
Ճիշտն ասած, երբեք չէի լսել Եսայանի կատարումները կամ էլ ուշադրություն չէի դարձրել, բայց վերջերս մի քանի սկավառակ ընկավ ձեռքս, վերջապես լսեցի։ Չէի ասի, որ անխտիր բոլոր երգերը դուր եկան, բայց մեծ մասը շատ հաջող կատարումներ են. ձայնը լավն է, ժամանակակից հայ երգիչներից շատերը կերազեին այդպիսի ձայն ունենալ։ Երգացանկն էլ հաջող է. թե´ ժամանակակից հեղինակների գործերը, թե´ գուսանական ու ժողովրդական երգերը։
Մի խոսքով, խորհուրդ եմ տալիս :) |

An article from USA ARMENIAN LIFE Magazine.
Ter-Petrossyan's Glendale Surrogates Reject Dialog
By APPO JABARIAN
Executive Publisher/Managing Editor
USA ARMENIAN LIFE Magazine
Over 200 community members attended and actively participated in a free
Intellectual Forum on the post-February 19 presidential election events in
Armenia. This unique, first-of-its-kind event intended to create a forum
of open discussions between the various groups regarding the importance of
stability and security of the independent Armenian state. The event took
place at the Glendale Central Library, and was organized by a group of
Armenian intellectuals in Los Angeles.
Several days before the event, invitations were mailed and e-mailed to all
concerned groups. The result: the number of the supporters in attendance of
the failed presidential candidate Levon Ter-Petrossyan - nearly 8% - was
dwarfed by the non-partisan supporters of stability and security of the
Armenian state - with over 90% of the participants. ( Read more... )
Does this mean, that at some point 8% of LTP supporters managed to silence the other 92% of the community by their agressive propaganda campaign? |

| Radio Liberty and the situation in Armenia |
[Apr. 6th, 2008|04:46 pm] |
The fact that I am not a big fun of Radio Liberty’s or BBC’s editorial policies on Armenia is not a big secret to anyone who reads my journal (check the tags rfe/rl and bbc for details). It's good that more and more people from outside of Armenia start noticing the bias too.
Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty's Provokes,
Incites The Crowds In Armenia By Giving Misinformation
James K. Glassman
Chairman of the BBC
Jeffrey Gedmin,
Director RFERL
Dear Sirs,
I have on numerous occasions complained to you regarding the bias reporting of your Armenian desk which has done everything in order to provoke and incite the crowds by giving misinformation.
Its now obvious that you have an agenda which is to have a regime change in Armenia, this can only done by the methods you have activated through your Armenian desk.
You should all be ashamed of your service to your so called Liberty, in other words change regimes to suit your designs in the area which you have done in Iraq and in other countries.
I will never again listen to your station, its so obvious what you stand for.
Yours sincerely
Mihran Keheyian

Several days ago I was a witness to one such psyop by Radio Liberty. I stopped a cab to get to the downtown Yerevan from one of the suburbs. The cab-driver was listening to RL, and they were reporting about the «opposition walks» at the Northern Avenue which took place regularly at around 6-7 PM every day. If you listened to their report it was like there was a civil war to break out in a moment. The radio hosts sounded excited, alarmed, almost hysterical. Needless to say, that when I got to Abovyan street (which is next to the Northern Ave.), there were just several dozens pedestrians and less than a dozen police officers there. But if you were elsewhere in Yerevan at that moment you would get the feeling that the war is going to start any moment... |
