Artyom Genrikhovich Borovik (; 13 September 1960 – 9 March 2000) was a prominent Russian journalist and media magnate. He was the son of a Soviet journalist, Genrikh Borovik, who worked for many years as a foreign correspondent in the U.S. ==Journalism== Borovik first appeared on Soviet television in late 1980s as one of the hosts of a highly progressive and successful ''Vzglyad'' (which literally translates as ''The View'' or ''The Look''), a kind of satirical television show watched weekly by as many as 100 million people. The other anchors were Evgeny Dodolev, Vladislav Listyev, Alexander Lyubimov, Alexander Politkovsky and Dmitry Zakharov. Borovik was a pioneer of investigative journalism in the Soviet Union during the beginning of glasnost. He worked for the American CBS program ''60 Minutes'' during the 1990s, and began publishing his own monthly investigative newspaper ''Top Secret'', which grew into a mass-media company involved in book publishing and television production. In 1999, Borovik started an investigative program called ''Versiya'' in partnership with ''U.S. News & World Report''. His ''Top Secret'' TV programme often focused on corruption cases involving Russia's political and economic elite. The programme, as well as Borovik's print publications, Top Secret and Versiya, were openly critical of Vladimir Putin. Borovik also opposed the First and Second Chechen Wars. His last investigation was about the Russian apartment bombings of 1999, which he and others alleged had actually been orchestrated by the Russian FSB.〔("Incident #1: Borovik's 'Top Secret'" ).〕 In one of his last papers he quoted Vladimir Putin who said: "There are three ways to influence people: blackmail, vodka, and the threat to kill."〔Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, ''Business Watch'', ("Oleg Kalugin: 'Man In The News' Once Again" ), 9 April 2002.〕 This quote Borovik based on Der Spiegel and Stern, German magazines.〔http://www.sovsekretno.ru/magazines/article/441〕 An Artyom Borovik prize for investigative journalism is awarded annually in Moscow.
