Fiction Beast | Literature vs Media: Journalists vs Novelists @Fiction_Beast | Uploaded February 2022 | Updated October 2024, 10 minutes ago.
Can 19th century Russian fiction shed light on what’s happening in Russia and Ukraine right now? In this video, I will compare how the media explains the situation and see if literature has a better understanding of the situation. I will pit a YouTuber journalist, Johnny Harris against two giants of Russian Literature, Tolstoy and Dostoevsky as to who can explain the situation better, dead novelists or a lazy journalist? Facts or fiction? And which is which? 

Here is Johnny Harris's video: youtube.com/watch?v=LJNtfyq3TDE
