Serbia finds itself in the midst of a wide-ranging media reform process. At stake are many issues: editorial independence versus fair market competition. Questions of state financing and media ownership. How to ensure transparency of who owns broadcasters and other media. And the question of what the state’s role should be with regard to Internet content regulation.
