Document Details : Title: Workshop on Politics and Propaganda Subtitle: The Media in Eastern Europe Before and After the Fall of the Berlin Wall Author(s): Journal: Ethical Perspectives Volume: 7 Issue: 2-3 Date: September 2000 Pages: 175-181 DOI: 10.2143/EP.7.2.503804 Abstract : Freedom of speech is at the top of the list of freedoms that our Western society holds with great pride. Totalitarian states have been and still are reproached for using the media for propaganda purposes. No one in the free West is pursued for publishing his or her own opinion (unless it is a case of libel, slander, racist or revisionist expression). We accept that our media stand for objective and pluralistic information. |
