euronews (на русском)

Сможет ли ЕС внедрить свой новый закон о свободе прессы?  Свобода прессы – фундамент демократии, но в некоторых странах ЕС ее становится все меньше. С августа государства-члены обязаны полностью внедрить Закон о свободе СМИ, однако ряд правительств сопротивляется внедрению первого в истории ЕС регламента, касающегося прессы.

03:59used by Brussels to silence divergent voices.

04:03Which countries are more likely to resist the implementation of the law?

04:08Well, we surely see a problem in Hungary,

04:11where we have a very hard-right government

04:13who is heavily influencing media and distorting the media market.

04:18What might change also depends on how each and every member state

04:24applies this law and how the European Commission

04:27will put pressure on the member states

04:30to really take this law seriously.

04:33The 2025 Rule of Law report from the European Commission

04:37warns of deteriorating conditions for journalists in several countries,

04:42smear campaigns by politicians,

04:43and growing risks from highly concentrated media ownership.

04:48Going into details, the Commission highlights concerns

04:50about journalists' safety in Bulgaria and Malta.

04:54The report points out that political pressure,

04:56including the distribution of state advertising,

04:59is a serious concern in Hungary and Romania.

05:02Media ownership lacks transparency chiefly in Bulgaria,

05:06Chechia, Netherlands, Cyprus and Spain.

05:09The report cites issues with independent regulation

05:12in Hungary, Greece and Poland.

05:16Our guest is Julie Marzerzak,

05:18head of Brussels Office of Reporters Without Borders.

05:22Should the European Commission open infringement proceedings

05:27that could even lead to sanctions against member states

05:32that resist implementing this new law?

05:36Member states have had more than a year

05:39to update their national laws,

05:41but most of them haven't yet done it.

05:45So, yes, I think it is time for the Commission to show its determination

05:52and, if necessary, to initiate proceeding against the most recalcitrant government.

06:00It's a test of credibility.

06:02Social media and the use of generative artificial intelligence,

06:08including in posts by political and business actors themselves,

06:13are increasingly defined the way people get news.

06:17So, isn't this law weak in addressing the problem of misinformation

06:23through those channels?

06:25There is one article in the MFA which supplements the Digital Services Act,

06:33but this doesn't solve the main problem,

06:36which is how social networks and their algorithm work

06:42by promoting, polarizing, divisive, shocking content,

06:48amplifying disinformation and marginalizing reliable media content.

06:53Concentration of media ownership in a few big corporations is increasing.

07:00What are the main risks of that,

07:02and does this law address those risks?

07:05The EMFA introduces a new way to look at mergers.

07:10The assessment of mergers will have to take into account

07:14a number of criteria,

07:16such as the expected effect on pluralism

07:20and the party's interest in other media sectors,

07:25the economic viability,

07:27and the party's commitments to editorial independence.

07:31The European Federation of Journalists stated that

07:35influencers and bloggers that follow the ethical rules of journalism

07:39should be considered media service providers.

07:43Others argue that this could lead to abuse of a law

07:45designed for controlled and recognized media outlets.

07:50The future seems somehow misty for the media sector

07:53and the law intended to protect it.
