European Media Freedom Act


Media ownership matters. The proposals of the European Media Freedom Act

The Commission’s proposed European Media Freedom Act is a major step towards protecting information as a public good. Danielle Borges and Roberta Carlini, of the EUI’s Centre for Media Pluralism and Media Freedom, explain the Act’s key tools for counteracting market concentration and non-transparency.

Why the European Media Freedom Act is a groundbreaking step for Europe
