In the latest ranking by Reporters without Borders, the Nordic countries were again among the winners in the defense of media freedom. What do the governments of these countries do better than others?
In Norway (which, again, placed 1st), a special government commission takes care of formulating a good framework of conditions for the media. In Sweden, where freedom of the press was enshrined as early as 1766, its citizens have an enforceable right to official information. In Denmark, all forms of media receive subsidies.
The COVID-pandemic has made the situation for the media, especially for quality media, more precarious. The advertising pie has become smaller because of competition from social media giants like Google and Facebook. This has resulted in countless jobs in the media industry being lost forever.
