Battling diktat of authorities, several publishers themselves use their influence to secure diktat of the press. Freedom of mass information is often understood as unbridled freedom of the mass media. In the process, many publications skillfully exploit the legislative norm regarding the right not to disclose sources of information. At the same time, there are appeals to courts about threats from certain officials, who for the slightest criticism of them literally terrorize journalists. At times, these threats become means to work on newspapers.
Advertisements fill the press and air like hallucinations.
Because they produce large amounts of money, they have begun to dictate the subject matter of publications in many cases. Concealed advertisements constitute a major source of enrichment. The relationship between advertisers and publications is complex and completely unregulated by legislation. Many editorial staffs attempt to decline responsibility for advertisements, an action that is contrary to law. Although to a lesser extent than previously, impermissible advertisement of alcoholic beverages and tobacco products continue in the mass media.
