Gazprom Media (Russian: ОАО Газпром-Медиа) is the largest Russian media holding founded in 1998 as a subsidiary of Gazprom. In 2001 it acquired NTV, the only nationwide state-independent television in Russia of the time, as well as other media assets of Vladimir Gusinsky's Media Most holding, which raised a major controversy and caused considerable changes in their editorial policy. In 2005 Gazprom Media purchased Izvestia, a leading nationwide newspaper. In August 2005 Gazprom sold the holding to Gazprombank.
