Abstract
The purpose of the research is to study prank journalism as one of the tools of the Russian information war against Ukraine. The paper analyzes the video materials of pranksters from Russia Vovan (Vladimir Kuznetsov) and Lexus (Alexei Stolyarov). The author outlines the emergence of prank journalism in the scientific discourse and highlights the difference in the use of this tool in democratic and authoritarian countries. In Western practice, it is a harmless joke; in Russia's hybrid war against Ukraine, it is one of the elements of misleading the general audience, creating contempt for individual figures, politicians, and heads of state, and sometimes dehumanizing the entire nation. The article analyzes the global geography of Russian pranks and the topics of conversations with “prank victims”. The result of the study is to determine the role and place of Russian pranks in the system of information wars.
