...most prominent opposition leader.
Doesn't the communist party there have a larger following?

US has a policy of pretending communists don't exist so people don't get any ideas about learning what communists support or think.
unless they're in mccarthyite mode in which case everyone and everything is a dirty commie plot
Yes. But they're commies, they don't count.
nah we don't talk about them
News media always admits that the communists were correct but only after heavily pushing lies and letting the falsehoods fester in every libs mind for a few months
The atomic unit of propaganda isn't lies, it's emphasis.
The headline on 
Kremlin Disputes Report Putin Didn’t Order Navalny’s Death
They really think Putin kills everyone who is mildly rude to him despite multiple opposition groups continuing to exist. He doesn't feel threatened by them (justifiably so), so why would he kill them and give the West and domestic groups even more reason to try and put him in the dirt? He may be a capitalist ghoul, but he isn't ignorant
But of course, maintains the longstanding paternalistic worldview that everyone who isn't a white European liberal is unfit to govern
"Did Putin order Navalny killed? The answer is yesn't."
Sounds like the US officials are in the bag for Putin 
Officials say Putin retains culpability for the death of his fiercest critic and most prominent opposition leader.
What the fuck does this mean? "He didn't have him killed, but he really wanted to, so it's still his fault."?
