Governments control the media today and oposition parties looking to become the government aim to control the media tomorrow. Market forces also play their role, with private corporations using the media to provide a platform for their own interests. Are any of them interested in showing the revolution?
A discussion on media in an age of crisis and change will take place featuring:
Alex Sakalis (openDemocracy)
Annabelle Chapman (Politico Europe & The Economist)
Roman Kurkiewicz (Collegium Civitas)
The debate is moderated by Agnieszka Wiśniewska (Krytyka Polityczna).
