This issue has been discussed in the “Media Azi” show this week by Nadine Gogu, Executive Director of the Independent Journalism Center, as the host, and her guests, BCC member Olga Gututui and Executive Director of the Electronic Press Association Ion Bunduchi.
According to the latest monitoring reports presented by the Association for Independent Press, manipulation and propaganda are doing well on some television channels that retransmit shows from the Russian Federation on the territory of Moldova. It all happens in full view of the broadcasting regulator, which does not respond timely to such cases – this is one of the conclusions drawn by the guests of the show.
From this edition, you can learn when the BCC last monitored these broadcasters and why the sanctions it imposed did not bring the desired effect. You will also learn what leverages the BCC has to stop manipulation and propaganda and why it does not use them effectively.
In this context the protagonists of the show draw attention to the fact that when these broadcasters applied for a broadcasting license on the territory of Moldova, they committed not to broadcast propagandistic and manipulative materials, and the BCC, in its turn, had to systematically monitor them. Why were not these arrangements realized? – See how the guests of the show explain it.
