Revision Number Six controversy
Kommersant published a purported internal document describing a highly centralized model in which the presidential administration would influence political parties, regional officials, elections, civil-society organizations and media activity. The document was supplied by an anonymous source, and its authenticity and status were contested. Critics later argued that aspects of the model resembled subsequent Russian political practice.
