Summary/Abstract: Politics and politicians continue to affect editing media and journalists. If we’re talking about public television and radio, the current Law on HRT permits more direct interference in personnel policy on HRT than ever in the last decade. After the privatization of the print media influence policy on them is smaller but it is very sophisticated and has not stopped. The main parties have ‘their’ journalists that they do the work. There is a huge role of journalists spins in building political image. Socially responsible journalism must disclose political spin to citizens as autonomous entities freely decide on policy.
