Before clicking on this link, I hopped over to the Wikipedia page and read the intro section to get some quick context. Turns out that was unnecessary because this "article" is literally just the Wikipedia intro, almost sentence for sentence, with some minor rephrasing here and there. It's pretty blatant. Wikipedia is mentioned in the photo credits, but there's no attribution for the text, which I think is a violation of the Creative Commons license and counts as plagiarism?
Pictures were interesting, though.
Also in the movie about these events, rescuers have finally located the wreck and the crew are still alive and banging on the hull with a wrench, but the movie-Russians at that point make needless further delays which cost the crew their chance at survival.
There is no evidence anywhere that anyone was alive in the vessel by the time it was reached by rescuers. Nobody heard a wrench banging. Hollywood made that up to paint a picture of the Russians.

I don't think the true version of the events is necessarily any kinder to Russians than this dramatization.
That movie is powerful and well worth watching.
