The EBU contributes to the European Commission’s 2022 Annual Rule of Law Report
24 January 2022EBU
Pressures on press freedom and media autonomy threaten democracy, particularly when applied to public service media. It is a growing menace internationally and affects countries where EBU Members are active. Against this background, we contributed to the Commission’s consultation on the 2022 Rule of Law Report.
Primarily, our contribution concerns public service media governance, transparency on media ownership as well as the protection of journalists.
