Censorship as a Limit Instrumentallity of Freedom of Expression

Daniela Jurcic, docent at the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Mostar.

“Journalists, loyal to authorities, have much better treatment than those who criticize them. Examples of co-operation between political elites and the media sector are exposing journalists to political and economic pressures. Some of them include threats as well as physical attacks against journalists. Other pressures are latent and include economic but also political pressures on the media, such as limiting budget funds or withdrawing advertising content whose media are financially dependent. “
