At the end of 1987, a new journalist, Vladislav Listyev, appeared on television. His career began with the leading program "Vzglyad", in the creation of which the Youth Editorial Board of the Central Television participated.

The program was aired every Friday, collecting millions of people from TV screens, because they finally had the opportunity to receive answers to important and topical issues that were stirring all the Soviet society at that time. The program "Vzglyad" said that it was not accepted to speak. This is what has become a fundamental difference from other journalists of the USSR. What topics were discussed here only: problems of politics, religion, attitude towards capitalist countries, as well as the topic of contemporary music and even sex.

For this reason, in the late 1980s the program acquired a cult status. Such success prompted Vlad Listiev and some of his like-minded people to found the TV company "VID", which was engaged in the creation of programs for the First Channel, later renamed to ORT. Since 1990 the independent activity of the company begins , in 1993 Vlad Listyev became its president. However, such success led to behind-the-scenes struggle, and eventually to the resignation of the leader.

Vlad Listyev's desire to make the world around him better became the cause of his death. Every year he acquired more and more ill-wishers.
