TV channel and media holding of the same name, founded in 2010. In January 2014, it was disconnected by most cable and satellite operators due to the scandal surrounding the poll about the blockade of Leningrad. Now the channel's programs are available in the official app and on the website by subscription, as well as on YouTube. Almost 2/3 of the airtime TV Rain broadcasts live. The channel broadly covered protest actions in Russia, Belarus, events related to the Bolotnaya case, the trials of Pussy Riot and Alexei Navalny.
