 New publication: Public Service Media Contribution to Democracy

The Media Intelligence Service of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) 
has just released a new report on the democratic value of news and why 
public service media matter in this regard: Public Service Media 
Contribution to Democracy.

Authored by Dr. Stephen Cushion, from Cardiff University, this report 
summarises the academic arguments on distinctiveness of PSM news and how 
the positive effects of PSM news drive a race to the top with commercial 
broadcasters.

The document can be downloaded freely from 
https://www.ebu.ch/publications/public-service-media-contribution-to-democracy 
(login required).

Additionally, the EBU has also launched a position paper on so-called 
fake news:
