BLOG | European Media Freedom Act on the case of Slovenia: Has Slovenia overtaken the European Commission with its new law?

February 08, 2023

In September 2022, the European Commission put forward a proposal for a new media regulator - the European Media Freedom Act. Slovenia is one of the most struggling EU countries in terms of media freedom and independence. In the summer of 2020, the Janša government proposed a media-focused law that would increase the state's influence over Slovenia's national press agency and limit its funding of the public broadcaster RTV. Has Slovenia's new law put the European Commission ahead of the game? That is what our intern Klára Landová discusses in her blog.

BLOG | European Media Freedom Act on the case of Slovenia: Has Slovenia overtaken the European Commission with its new law?

February 08, 2023

V září roku 2022 předložila Evropská komise návrh nového regulátoru médií - Evropský akt o svobodě sdělovacích prostředků. Slovinsko je jednou ze zemí EU, která nejvíce bojuje se svobodu v médiích a jejich nezávislosti. V létě 2020 navrhla Janšova vláda zákon zaměřený na média, který by měl zvýšit vliv státu na slovinskou národní tiskovou agenturu a omezit její činnost financování veřejnoprávní televize RTV. Předběhlo Slovinsko svým novým zákonem Evropskou komisi? Tím se ve svém blogu zabývá naše stážistka Klára Landová.

Blog | European Media Freedom Act

December 12, 2022

In her blog, our intern Leonor Tavares focuses on the new European media freedom act. Independent media as a means of freedom of expression is under threat in some EU member states and is being used for political propaganda or is being shut down altogether. The new law should ensure that public service media provide a plurality of information in an impartial manner, while regulating their funding and the acquisition and protection of journalistic sources.
