TEFI Award winner, journalist and writer Andrei Norkin is known for his collaboration with the radio stations Kommersant FM and Komsomolskaya Pravda, TV channels Tsargrad TV, Rossiya 24, and Channel Five. But highest value for a presenter's career there were two stages of work on NTV. Having no specialized education, in 1996 Norkin joined the newly formed television company, but after five years of work he became disillusioned with the activities of the liberal opposition, whose mouthpiece the television channel was then acting as.

After 20 years, the journalist returned to NTV as the host of the “Meeting Place” program. The talk show consistently shows high ratings, although Norkin is accused of a pro-government position and biased selection of speakers.

Childhood and youth

The journalist's parents lived in Moscow. The couple had a son, Andrei, in 1968; his date of birth was July 25. As a schoolboy, Norkin attended amateur clubs and five times during his studies became a laureate in various categories at the Moscow level. The graduate was attracted by acting education, but in theater university members of the admissions committee advised the young man to first serve in the army.


The 18-year-old conscript was sent to Kutaisi. There was an artillery unit in the coastal city where he was to serve. “The army in which I served was a complete mess,” Norkin will say later, commenting on the publication of the book “Army Tales” for radio “Moscow Speaks.”


He returned from service with the rank of sergeant. In his youth, even before being drafted, he managed to work as a mechanic at a factory. This experience and two years in Kutaisi changed his outlook on life, and Norkin gave up his dream of becoming an actor. A discharged serviceman got a job as an announcer at the Luzhniki Stadium. Here he worked from 1989 to 1992.


In 1990, when Norkin was 22 years old, his mother died. The woman was hit by a train. Neither Andrei nor his widowed father considered the incident a tragic accident and demanded an investigation, but they were refused. The experience made him think about leaving the country, but Norkin stayed and a year later decided to try his hand at radio. Part-time work as a news anchor at Maximum became his debut in journalism.

Career

The first stage of Andrei Norkin’s professional experience was cooperation with radio stations. In 1992, he left the stadium and got a job at Radio 101, where he also headed the directorate information programs. Having gained experience as a presenter, he came to NTV at the age of 28. The newcomer was entrusted with leading first the morning and then the afternoon newscasts, as well as the “Hero of the Day” program.

As a TV presenter, Norkin collaborated with NTV until 2001. At the same time he started distance learning at the Faculty of Journalism of Moscow State University, but later abandoned his studies due to being busy at work and the need to take care of his family, in which by that time two children were growing up.


The journalist described the reasons for leaving the opposition channel and breaking relations with the majority of representatives of liberal circles in his second book, “From NTV to NTV. Secret meanings television. My information war." When asked by colleagues from Express Newspaper why Norkin abandoned liberal ideas, the presenter replied:

“I worked long and closely with people who are the bearers of these ideas... One day I realized that the guys were using us and simply deceiving us.”

In 2002, Andrei Norkin left the NTV channel.

In 2002, he left NTV for the newly created television company Echo-TV. It produced content but did not have a broadcaster's license. But it became a step in career growth for Norkin - he was entrusted with the post of editor-in-chief. Also, until 2007, he headed the capital representative office of RTVi, Vladimir Gusinsky’s international company, broadcasting in Russian with its main office located abroad. This company was informally the successor to NTV.


At the same time as Norkin, Mikhail Osokin and others moved here. During this period he became a laureate of TEFI-2006. The prize is awarded for hosting the “Now in Russia” program.

Having finally parted ways with the opposition, in 2008 he came to Channel Five. The new position makes you remember the passion of your youth - Norkin is appointed artistic director program “Morning on Fifth”, where he is also responsible for hosting.


Andrey Norkin - laureate of the TEFI-2006 award

After two years creative work he proceeds only to management, freeing up time for cooperation with the newly emerged radio station Kommersant FM.

Since 2011, he has only worked on radio. In 2013, cooperation was interrupted for four months due to Norkin’s project on Public Television, but in the summer he returned to the Kommersant publishing house. He also hosts programs on the stations “Echo of Moscow” and “Moscow Speaks”.


From 2014 to 2016, the journalist again turns to television. Helps produce episodes of the “Replica” program, which is broadcast by “Russia-24”, and returns to NTV. His projects “Anatomy of the Day” and “Norkin’s List” are being published. Well-known media critic Irina Petrovskaya notes that Norkin does not shy away from falsifying facts. The presenter is also criticized for purposefully selecting only those program characters who can confirm his point of view.

In 2015, he briefly collaborated with the television company Tsargrad TV, focused on Orthodox themes, and in 2016 he finally returned to NTV. The main project is the show “Meeting Place”. Topics that are capable of causing heated debate are selected for discussion.

Andrey Norkin got into a fight with blogger Dmitry Suvorov

However, Norkin himself becomes a victim of passionate debate, for whom confrontation with opponents often turns into brawls. So, in February 2018, when the issue dedicated to Donbass was broadcast in live, the presenter tried to hit Ukrainian blogger Dmitry Suvorov. He tried to ridicule his opponent who was talking about the victims of the war in Donbass. Other filming participants also got involved in the fight. Subsequently, the TV channel apologized to Suvorov.

Personal life

The journalist first married in 1985, but this marriage broke up. Norkin met his current wife Yulia within the walls of the Radio 101 radio station in early 1992. A journalist by training, she came to get a job. A few months later, Andrei proposed to her, and the same year the lovers got married.


Andrei adopted 6-year-old Alexander, Yulia’s son from her first marriage, and in 1994 the couple had a daughter. The girl was named Alexandra. In 2002, they adopted a 7-year-old boy named Artem. Later, the family learned from the guardianship authorities that Artem’s parents also abandoned his brother Alexei, after which they accepted him too. According to Norkin, the fact of adoption was never hidden from the brothers.


The family lives in the capital in two-story house, for which Norkin pays a multi-year mortgage. Eight dogs and seven cats live with them. In an interview, the journalist admitted that the abundance of pets is his fault, since he once told the children that if they brought an animal home, they would not be able to throw it out into the street. The sons and daughter immediately took advantage of this.

The journalist's father lives in Israel. He once received treatment there and was pleased with the country. However, he did not immediately agree to change his place of residence: he left abroad after he turned 70 years old.


Together with his wife, he broadcast on several radio stations. Norkin admits that it was his wife who pushed him to write both books.

The TV presenter's zodiac sign is Leo. Since February 2018 he has been leading
