Annotation The article discusses the practice of visual reflection in the television content of the events that occur in Ukraine in the area of the contact lines. This is the novelty of analyzing the rich television content that fills the air for a specific period of time, starting from the end of February 2022. The author attempts to analyze and generalize the stylistics of the relevant reports going on the air by domestic media, determines their format and typology. The article outlines the genetic relationship of war correspondents’ materials with the general trends of world visual culture within the framework of the functioning model of show civilization. The issues of the adequacy of the presentation of informational “military” materials of the reality of the confrontation between the domestic armed forces and the Armed Forces of Ukraine are touched upon. The author critically analyzes a number of techniques for visualizing events from the point of view of their informational content, the visibility of the visual series offered by the domestic mass media, as well as the geographical identification of events related to the conduct of the Special Military Operation (SMO) on the territory of Ukraine. The general line of the Russian media on the constant coverage of what is happening in the relevant points of action of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, including the efficiency and speed of receiving news and facts from the areas of military clashes, is also analyzed. The practice of the current information actions of journalists and those media outlets that broadcast their materials is compared in the article with the historical experience of the information and propaganda work of the Soviet media during the Great Patriotic War. The author puts forward a number of proposals that could, if implemented, build a clearer system for the dissemination of information from the SMO zone.
