VIDEO Το Al Jazeera ξεσκεπαζει MEGA και ΣΚΑΙ

 10 May 2012

Greek media has seen better days. Until recently, the small country of 11 million people was home to a mammoth media sector of 11 television channels, 71 radio stations and more than 22 national newspapers.

That media bubble burst when the financial crisis hit in 2011: major outlets have shut down, at least 4,000 journalists have been laid off and others are facing big pay cuts. Those who remain have little leeway to tell a more complete story.

Major media outlets owned by big conglomerates have been accused of injecting their own business interests into editorial decisions, limiting their coverage to pro-World Bank and IMF agendas.

This week, the media will be covering the first Greek elections since the beginning of the financial crisis, and Listening Post's Marcela Pizarro looks at the story behind Greek media’s own financial crisis, its effect on freedom of expression and that very Greek idea of democracy.

Το Al Jazeera κάνει λόγο για κατευθυνόμενη από συμφέροντα δημοσιογραφία, χαρακτηρίζοντας ορισμένα από τα ελληνικά ΜΜΕ ως μέρος της κρίσης, τονίζοντας την εμμονή τους να παρουσιάζουν ως μονόδρομο την οικονομική πολιτική της Παγκόσμιας Τράπεζας και του ΔΝΤ.
