Monitoring media pluralism in Europe : application of the Media Pluralism Monitor 2017 in the European Union, FYROM, Serbia & Turkey

This report presents the results and the methodology of the 2017 implementation of the Media Pluralism Monitor (MPM) in the EU-28 countries and in Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYRoM), Serbia and Turkey (MPM2017). The MPM is a tool developed by the Centre for Media Pluralism and Media Freedom (CMPF) at the European University Institute to assess the risks to media pluralism in a given country. The MPM project is co-funded by the European Union. The MPM focuses its analysis on news and current affairs. Different news media are covered: legacy media (print, radio and audiovisual), with their online editions; native digital media (and, to some extent, search engines and social media in the context of market plurality). The MPM further considers different types of media: public service, commercial, and non-profit community media
