description The paper considers the role of a writer-journalist in Russian mass media. The current media space of Russia where a writer-journalist works is analyzed. Their informational and publicistic activity is described. It is suggested that writers as certain subjects of the media reality form a separate group of journalists. This study aims to reveal the functioning specifics of a writer-journalist in the Russian information environment at the turn of the 20th – 21st centuries. In order to fulfill this aim and to solve particular tasks associated with it, including identification of the position of a writer-journalist in the Russian system of public journalism bodies, the creative activity of Zakhar Prilepin (born in 1975), an active and brilliant writer, journalist, social and political activist, is analyzed as an example, as well as some other personalities. An attempt is made to reveal the specifics of perception of the current information and political events taking place in the world by Z. Prilepin, a writer and journalist. The scientific significance of the work is that this is the first time when the writer-journalist is considered as a subject of the media reality at the level of scientific categorial apparatus. The main methods used in the study are analysis and comparison. The conclusion is made that a writer, being an integral person whose consciousness is not influenced by super-new media ideas, is able to impartially reflect the reality, because they can see the difference between truth and lies and consider the reality through the prism of their own world image rather than from the position of here and now. In addition, a writer-journalist is distinguished by complex approaches to the analyzed issue, because they consider it as a problem and not as an event.
