Summary. 520 The pivotal role of television in supporting democracy in Europe is under threat. Public service broadcasters are compromising quality to compete with commercial channels, and many of them depend on governments or political parties. Meanwhile, ever larger concentrations are developing in the commercial sector, often with clear political affiliations. These developments jeopardize broadcasting pluralism and diversity, with the new democracies of Central and Eastern Europe most at risk. These are the main findings of the monitoring report Television Across Europe: Regulation, Policy and Independence, published by OSI's EU Monitoring and Advocacy Program (EUMAP) and Media Program. The report covers 20 European countrie--EU members, candidates, and potential candidates--from the U.K. to Turkey, and from Romania to France. At 1,662 pages, it is the largest ever comparative survey of its kind. The report analyzes broadcasting across the continent and addresses policy recommendations to national and international authorities and groups. 650 0 Television broadcasting policy |zEurope. 650 0 Television broadcasting |zEurope. 710 2 Open Society Institute. |bEU Monitoring and Advocacy Program. 710 2 Open Society Institute. |bNetwork Media Program. 852 |xjwb3 900 AUTH 942 |2ddc |cBK 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6384_550940000000000_TEL_VOL__14 |70 |8GEN |980991OSA |bOSA |d2016-10-12 |eOSA |l0 |o384.55094 TEL vol. 1-4 |r2016-10-12 |w2016-10-12 |yBK |cGeneral Stacks 920 01 Pe8xr8eW 992 01 384_550940000000000_TEL_VOL__14 |bWRV_UUZQVZZZZZZZZZZ_6LE_4BE__YV 966 |cIn the Research Room
