Abstract
Aim. To identify the specifics and influence of the publication's editorial policy on the perception of the student movement in the public consciousness.
Methodology. The article analyzes the coverage of the student movement in the second half of the 19th century in the newspaper «Moskovskie vedomosti». The methodological basis is the historicalgenetic method, as well as the historical-systemic and ideographic approach.
Results. The results of the study reveal the mechanisms of interaction between the conservative press and the university community, and also contribute to understanding the role of the periodical press in shaping public opinion during a crisis period in Russian history.
Research implications. The study reveals the ambiguous role of the publication: on the one hand, the publications of «Moskovskie vedomosti» contributed to the escalation of the conflict and the radicalization of the protest, while on the other hand, the newspaper tried to stabilize the academic environment by exerting moral influence on young people and supporting apolitical students.
