Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to the issues of the correctness of facts and their distinction from opinions, on the one hand, and of the pluralism of opinions, on the other. The study deals with the radio show "Politically INcorrect" with Petar Volgin, broadcast on the "Horizon" program of the Bulgarian National Radio (BNR). Against the background of the war in Ukraine, the main research problem is how replacing the facts with opinions, represented as "pluralism", results in propaganda. The text demonstrates the similarity between the messages disseminated in the broadcast and Russian state propaganda regarding the war in Ukraine and its broader ideological context. Finally, the article examines the possibility of developing ideologically biased journalism, provided that basic professional norms are observed regarding the correctness of facts, fact-based opinions and a clear distinction between them.
