ABSTRACT

Peter Krug of the University of Oklahoma College of Legislation and Monroe Price of the Annenberg School at the University of Pennsylvania talks about how formal law, administrative procedure, and other enabling factors interact to effectively operate healthy media systems. The biggest threat to the rule of law is not media freedoms instead of administrative actions that arbitrary or outside the bounds of the law. The necessity for "a specific kind of literacy that comprises a desire to acquire, interpret, and use information as part of civic society" is another factor that audiences must have. For a more comprehensive enabling media environment, this is crucial. More research is necessary to understand how the many components of the environment that foster independent media can be connected to stages of national political changes.

Key words: independent media, democratic society, free press
