A cut of unsuccessful takes hit the Internet and became a hit. In one of the fragments, Irada Zeynalova, recording a stand-up, yelled at the boy who got into the frame, sending him into, so to speak, an aphedron. In an interview with the Teleprogramma website, the TV presenter told how it was.

It turned out that the recordings had been made for many years - then the film crew was sent in the wake of the last journey of the Romanov imperial family to Tobolsk. One of the fragments of the video had to be filmed outside in 40-degree frost. Television ethics did not allow Zeynalova, who was standing near the house where the Romanovs lived, to put on gloves or a hat, she was freezing and stammering. After several unsuccessful takes, the journalist managed to read the text well, but a boy walked past and waved his hand at the camera. After the words of the operator about what to do another take, the TV presenter could not stand it and yelled at the child.

“Since at that moment I was reading a lot of Ranevskaya, it seemed to me that I had a chic and intelligent conversation with this young peasant. I hope he became the mayor of Tobolsk and everything is fine with him, ”Zeynalova shared with reporters.

Irada Zeynalova is a well-known name in Russian television journalism, a member of the Academy of Russian Television. Irada Avtandilovna earned the respect and attention of the audience for her bright news reports and the author's manner of presenting information.

Over 20 years of work on federal channels, the face of a journalist has become familiar in the home of millions of Russians. Having started her career on RTR (now Russia 1), Zeynalova continued on the air of Channel One, to which she gave 13 years of her life.

At the end of 2016, the TV star switched to NTV, where she hosts the final news program.

Childhood and youth

Irada Zeynalova was born in the capital in February 1972 in a mixed Russian-Azerbaijani family. Father Avtandil Isabalievich, an Azerbaijani by nationality, raised children according to traditions, in strictness.

Irada is not the only child in the family: her younger sister followed in her footsteps and became a journalist. Relatives and friends of the sisters claim that in terms of character and perception of the world, Irada is more Azerbaijani, Svetlana is Russian. Outwardly, the Zeynalov sisters are very similar.

Irada from her youth was distinguished by her active character, explosive energy and activity. Having matured, she led a vigorous social activity: she accepted pioneers into the Komsomol, collected signatures for a petition in support of disadvantaged Chilean children, and defended the unjustly convicted fighter for the rights of the Indians, Leonardo Peltier.

Therefore, Zeynalova's first and only job in her specialty to date was service at Samsung Aerospace.

Journalism

The desire to become a journalist, dormant in Irada Zeynalova since childhood, woke up in 1997. The “journalistic gene” was passed on to daughters from their father, who had mastered this profession in his time. The only thing that kept Irada from appearing on television earlier was the fear that the titanic work would not be up to the task. But the fears were in vain. A friend, journalist Olga Kokorekina, played a certain role in Zeynalova's work biography. She invited Irada to try her hand as an assistant editor of the Vremya program on RTR.

Soon the assistant became the editor of Vesti and a translator from English. Working with the Dutch team, Irada Zeynalova was involved in creating a newsroom for the news program. And Zeynalova first appeared on TV screens in 2000 - she made her debut as the host of the Vremya TV program.

Later, the journalist told the story of a curious incident. According to her, Channel One filmed a story in Tobolsk about the last journey of the Romanov imperial family. Filming in 40-degree frost against the backdrop of the house where the Romanovs stayed, a microphone with an iron base in his hand without a mitten and unsuccessful takes caused Irada to fail, because the boy ruined the only successful shot.

Another hit of the Runet is the release of KVN stars 15 years ago “Alumni Meeting”.

I was the first to inform my family and Konstantin Lvovich Ernst about my decision. And I had long conversations both in the family and with the management. It was very valuable for me, because I consider myself an honest person. I never play games, I don't build intrigues. She came and honestly said: “Sorry, I'm leaving. Support me if you want." I'm not the kind of reporter who comes in and puts in a letter of resignation in the hope of being kept. Konstantin Lvovich, he knows me well and understands people very well. I would say that he has a completely bestial instinct for people. It was a long and difficult conversation. And he supported me,” said Zeynalova.

A smartass and a reptile, she didn’t recognize me, she didn’t even say hello. ” And I understand that I did not fly anywhere that day. I never fly first class, because I, like all my viewers, fly with economy transfers and don’t see anything wrong with that. And I open the photo of this woman - I have never seen her at all. And she develops a huge discussion on the topic of the fact that we grew up together with her. And so nothing bothers me. If they have a day after they write about me, God bless them,” she said.

Zeynalova also remembered the “wildly funny situation” that happened to her on the anniversary of Irina Khakamada. “Birthday was on the fifth or fourth floor. There is only one elevator, small. I'm running, I should have left earlier. And there stands some terribly, as it seems to him, a liberal-minded man with his wife. In such a strong giver. He looks at me and says: "Irada Zeynalova." I say yes". And I just got on the air from the Arab Springs. Looks like this: “I want to strangle you. I'll rip out your Adam's apple with my fingers." His equally tipsy wife says: "Vasya, well, it's okay for you." I say: “Choke, do not deny yourself anything. Take it and choke it." He replies, "I've changed my mind." I say: “This is how you pissed off your life and your country. You are only talking. Then don't open your mouth if you don't feel like doing anything."

Channel One has found a replacement for the host of the weekly analytical program Vremya, which airs on Sundays at 21:00 (formerly Sunday Time). The place of Irada Zeynalova in the new season of the program will be taken by the General Director of the Expert media holding Valery Fadeev. This was told by two employees of the TV channel and confirmed by an acquaintance of Fadeev.

At the moment, Valery Fadeev is undergoing tests in the studio of the Vremya program, another employee of Channel One added. Oksana Rostovtseva, editor-in-chief of Resurrection Time, said that the program has not been released since mid-July.

Zeynalova herself advised to contact the TV channel's press service for information. However, the press service of Channel One did not respond to a media request.

A colleague of Zeynalova said that, most likely, the host will remain on the channel, she may be offered to host a talk show. The last issue of the Sunday Time program with Irada Zeynalova was released on July 10, 2016. Beginning July 17, Channel One's weekly informational and analytical program is released under the name Vremya, and its hosts change.

Irada Zeynalova has been hosting Sunday Time since 2012, her predecessor in this post was Pyotr Tolstoy, who is now running for the State Duma from United Russia. Every year, Zeynalova took part in the program “Conversation with Dmitry Medvedev”.

In 2014, the story, which was shown in the Sunday program, caused a major scandal. A Channel One journalist interviewed a refugee from Slovyansk. She said that Ukrainian troops, having entered the city, staged a public execution of a three-year-old boy. The media of Ukraine and Russia revealed actual inconsistencies in the woman's story. In addition, journalists drew attention to the fact that a similar story was published earlier in his blog by pro-Kremlin political scientist Alexander Dugin.

Zeynalova later continued to comment on the scandal surrounding the story during the program, pointing out that the journalists had no proof that the story was true. But according to the presenter, it was “a real story of a real woman.” In 2014, the TV presenter was included in the sanctions list of Ukraine.

A colleague of the presenter claims that the main reason for Irada Zeynalova's departure from Channel One is the fierce competition of the program with Dmitry Kiselev's Vesti Nedeli on the Russia 1 channel. "Sunday" was one of the popular information and analytical programs of the country on a par with "Vesti Nedeli". The rating of the latest issue of Sunday's Vremya was 4.7%. "Vesti Nedeli" was left behind - 4.4%. Previously, Kiselyov's program held the leading position in the rating for three weeks, but with a minimal advantage of 0.1-0.3%. The Kremlin had no complaints about Zeynalova's work.

According to media reports, Valery Fadeev was not chosen as the host by chance. First, on the eve of the presidential elections in 2018, the Kremlin intends to see a new person on television who will inspire more confidence in the conservative electorate. According to officials, Fadeev is more suitable for this role. Secondly, the Kremlin compensates for the loss of Fadeev in the primaries from United Russia. Fadeev was promised a passing place in the Moscow lists of United Russia, but due to the unwillingness of the city authorities, he had to advance to the primaries in Komi. He lost the primaries and ended up not being included in the list of candidates.

In addition, he was a member of the Public Chamber and is still a member of the supreme council of United Russia. Together with deputy Vladimir Pligin, he leads the liberal platform of United Russia. He was a confidant of Russian President Vladimir Putin in the presidential elections. Fadeev entered the central headquarters of the All-Russian Popular Front (ONF).

Valery Fadeev already has experience as a TV presenter. Since 2014, he has been broadcasting the Structure of the Moment program on Channel One.
