The site has received numerous awards and Internet awards, and is known both among professionals and sports fans.
Journalist career
For a wide audience, Yuri Dud appeared several years ago, but until that time only individual football fans knew who he was. From the age of 11, he was interested in literary topics. It was at this age that he wrote the first note. However, the first salary was received only two years later.
In 2008, Yuri attended the Summer Olympics in Athens, from where he sent reports for various Russian publications. By the age of 19, Yuri worked at the largest sports competitions taking place around the world. To this day, the blogger has many creative ideas and is full of energy. More often he began to flicker on federal channels.
There are three main projects:
- Sports.ru portal. The position of editor-in-chief has become one of the most significant events in the life of a young journalist.
- Show "Headbutt". Today it is closed, but for some time it was regularly aired on the channel "Russia 2".
- Project "Cult Tour" on the TV channel "MatchTV". Lets you find out what incredible, funny happened in the world of football.
Yuri Dud has a certain weight in the world of sports - the majority of Russian journalists do not disregard the criticism of the journalist.
What is Yuri Dud doing today?
Today the project "vDud" is popular. Its meaning lies in interviewing people of various positions and professions. Since the project is released not on television, but on the global network, you can hear obscenities and tricky questions in it.
Some colleagues call the project a modern version of the Posner program. The host carefully prepares for the meeting of each guest, selects questions that would be interesting to a large circle of people. Thanks to the professional approach, the number of subscribers only grows.
The goal of "vDud" is to reshape the interview genre from boring conversation into an engaging, sometimes shocking show that doesn't have to be sports-related. Among the people who visited the studio were:
- Alexey Navalny;
- Vladimir Pozner;
- Vladimir Zhirinovsky;
- Yuri Bykov;
- Leonid Parfenov and others.
Why did Yu Dud become popular?
According to experts, the public is interested in the very format in which the journalist works. He is of interest not only to ordinary viewers, but also to his colleagues. The latter often watch such interviews as a kind of news source.
This works like a snowball for various channels that expand their popularity and increase the popularity of the interview itself. An example is Yuri's interview with Oleg Tinkov. It became an information source for 154 articles of major media, which quoted the businessman.
The journalist does not like to talk about his family. The only thing that is known is that he is married and has two children. The chosen one is named Olga, and in honor of the birth of his son, Yuri got a tattoo with his name on his arm. You can see it in many editions of the program.
In conclusion, we note that one release of the program costs a blogger 20,000 rubles. On one of the channels in YouTube, a video blogger noted that his income varies from 500 thousand rubles to one million. Whether this is true is unknown. Most of the guests invited to the shooting of the "vDud" program are men. Only in October 2017, Yuri invited Ksenia Sobchak to shoot.
