Montenegro’s Media Maze: Tackling the Three-Headed Monster in a Small Size Arena
['Wendy Collinson']
News - Ethical Journalism Network
To the concern of some media experts, three of four broadcasters with national frequencies in Montenegro are controlled by Serbian media groups. To sum up and paint this three-headed monster that hovers over Montenegrin colleagues: the scarcity of quality professional media workers, the malignant influence of larger political centres, and the information backwardness of mainstream professionals mean that various low-quality media content spreads its influence faster. This UNESCO project, supported by the European Union (EU), is aimed at fostering media ethics, rights-based regulation of digital platforms and online media, as well as adopting Media and Information Literacy (MIL) policies and integrating them into formal education.
