Media Ownership, Media Funding and Media Capture | Understanding Media
Uncover how ownership, funding, and political pressures shape media—and how to resist “media capture.”
Understanding Media is an academic event series at CODE in which we discuss how media shape our individual and collective consciousness—and who controls this immense power. This event series is organized together with Universität Witten / Herdecke. Every week, there will be a guest expert.
On October 21, we welcome Marius Dragomir, Director of the Media and Journalism Research Center, a global think tank on media, journalism, politics, and tech. Learn more: https://journalismresearch.org
Marius Dragomir is the leading expert in Media Ownership and Media Funding Research. Media ownership structures are indeed one of the most critical factors influencing media bias.
Only those who delve into ownership relations and the behind-the-scenes power struggles over media control can truly understand how free or controlled the media are—and which political or economic forces and principles they serve.
With this expert talk, we'll be right at the pulse of Europe's geopolitical developments. CODE students, faculty and team, as well as external guests, are invited to join.
This event will take place online, the link will be shared shortly before.
