RIA Novosti: Opinion: Kasyanov - the messenger vs. the message
"None of Kasyanov's criticisms of Kremlin policies is new, or his own invention. However, what is more than disingenuous is the fact that Kasyanov was prime minister when almost all the ' negative tendencies' he cites were coming about."
"Kasyanov's comments on state control of electronic media, particularly television, cast doubt on his integrity. Never once did he speak out when the Kremlin wrestled control of television from Russia's oligarchs. Kasyanov's comment that 'the judiciary is increasingly servile' sounds like selective memory serving self-interests - the business groups he is associated with have been among the major beneficiaries of Russia's "servile" legal system."
