Summary/Abstract: The text is an essay at presenting the media and their relations with the current political system in Romania. Recent developments in the press, radio, television and the internet have been taken into consideration. Romania’s media play an extremely important role in society. Their main objective is to keep the general public informed about major issues in society: how the government functions, about legislation, local initiatives and self-governance, as well as national security. Control over media ownership is constitutionally regulated which is a considerable advantage in comparison with other South-Eastern European countries. Romanian media are quite open to progress in new information technologies. In this regard the country boasts one of the most dynamic and flexible markets in Europe and in terms of technological innovation it takes a leading position worldwide.
