Media rethought Do you also sometimes worry about what information you can still trust? And do you also wish for a television programme in which you are more involved? Which media policy can realise freedom of the press and state publication obligations in equal measure? This book tells us: ... how eight democratically run TV channels can engage, educate and inform citizens, and control and publicise the work of government. ... how a fourth power in the state could look like, in which the citizens - depending on the controversy - determine which decisions should be made publicly. ... what path the formation of opinion can take when state and private media are separated and have to disclose their policy stance to their consumers. After 20 years of work on this book series, Andreas Seidl thus ventures a step towards founding a party. In doing so, he entertains his readers both intellectually and visionarily. If this work can give you hope, inspire you or move you to action, it has fulfilled its purpose. Available in German and English
