PROFESSION AND POLITICS IN THE MEDIA

Miroslav Vujević ; redovni profesor Fakulteta političkih znanosti u mirovini

Abstract

In a totalitarian society, the journalist profession could not grow; that is why politics still takes precedence profession in Croatian journalism. The mass media are controlled by politics, and journalists have remained socio-political activists. This has stunted the professional development of the journalistic profession, so that Croatian journalists cannot separate truth from fallacy, they equate (accurate) facts and (truthful) opinion, and conceive of commentaries in a rather odd way — as the ultimate and subjective journalistic form.
