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

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.

Slovinsko je jednou ze zemí EU, která nejvíce bojuje se svobodu v médiích a jejich nezávislosti.

Předběhlo Slovinsko svým novým zákonem Evropskou komisi? Tím se ve svém blogu zabývá naše stážistka Klára Landová.
