媒体业受到经济危机的严重破坏。一些媒体,主要是那些报道小报节目、比其他媒体更精通数字技术的媒体,或者是那些有财力雄厚的投资者支持的媒体,正在生存,甚至蓬勃发展。但独立新闻机构,特别是西方世界以外的机构,一直在努力解决严重的财务问题。本文分析了政府如何直接和间接地利用资金来吸引媒体。它描述了政府如何利用资金控制媒体的趋势,不资助独立新闻,而是选择资助推动政府议程及其盟友和支持者(无论是政治团体还是企业)利益的媒体机构。
The media industry has been ravaged by the economic crises. Some media, mainly those covering tabloid fare and digitally savvier than others or those backed by deep-pocketed investors, are surviving or even thriving. But independent journalism outfits, particularly outside the Western world, have been grappling with serious financial problems. This article is an analysis of how government uses funding, directly and indirectly, to capture the media. It describes trends in how governments use funding to control media by not financing independent journalism, but choosing to fund instead media outlets that advance the government agenda and the interests of its allies and supporters, either political groups or businesses.
