The information agency "Res" appeared on the information field of the Republic on December 2, 1995. Under the conditions of the information blockade during the years of the struggle for independence, it was the voice of "Res" that reported information about what was happening outside South Ossetia. The agency was included in the structure of the Ministry of Information, Press, Publishing and Book Trade (now - the Committee for Information and Press of the RSO).

"Res" got its second wind in 2003, having mastered new information technologies, and first of all - the Internet. On April 7, 2003, the IA Res website appeared, expanding the agency's audience thousands of times. The requirements for the promptness of the information disseminated also increased.

Whatever events and processes take place outside the window, honesty and objectivity have always been the main principles of the work of the "Res" staff. Restraint and objectivity in the presentation of even the hottest news of a domestic political nature is their recognized style.

Does freedom of speech destroy or create? Often journalists ask this question ... Why are the categorical judgments in the media against the state considered progressive today? But it is the invented "news" that attracts everyone's attention and becomes a sensation. They are read excitedly, listened to, frozen, and watched without stopping. Yes, yes, they are believed! They are shared with best friends and girlfriends, and hotly commented on.

And ... what turns out, today fakes are generously funded - invented, fake news. At the same time, network propagandists are freer than professional journalists! They do not have to verify the authenticity of their information, for they themselves invent it, and, of course, they know that it is a lie. Who will make a claim to them? Social networks are not responsible for the accuracy of the information transmitted. Social networks are a territory of absolute freedom, and everyone has the opportunity to express themselves on any topic. And no any responsibility!

Journalism's signaling functions and cultural barriers designed to protect society from disinformation do not work here. A new information reality has emerged, not limited by any rules. And in these conditions, reproaches are often heard against the state media. Unfortunately, analytics and investigations are disappearing from journalism; they are practically not read anymore. But how can a society live without understanding what is happening?

All these years, the "Res" team has been improving, replenishing with young personnel, and the agency's pages reflect everything that happens in the Ossetian state. Our agency is always ready for feedback from the public and never left without a response the appeals that were addressed to us. The impartiality and objectivity of "Res" in the presentation of both successive and critical information is a guarantee of our reader's trust in us. Trust, which we highly value and which we value very much.

The IA "Res" keeps pace with the times, making plans for the future, information of the agency is used in their materials by almost all state media, groups in social networks, as well as foreign agencies.

The journalistic staff will continue to bring the most interesting and relevant news from the developing young Republic to the people and the world!
