In: Politicka misao, Band 41, Heft 2, S. 72-84
How much does the HRT fulfill its function of a public service & what is the quality of its news programming? The author gets an answer to these questions by means of a comparative analysis of some news broadcasts by the HRT & the BBC in June & July 2003. The analysis was carried out within the postgraduate study in TV journalism at Goldsmiths Coll, U of London. Although Croatia & GB have different political & media traditions, & are immensely different regarding their media market size, certain professional standards should be the same in all newsrooms, especially on public televisions. By comparing the structure of certain news programs, the news slots, the dominant topics, the reporting style & the news presentation, the author has noticed some patterns of mistakes in the HRT programs; using the BBC as a model, he offers some feasible solutions regarding the HRT capacities & the habits of the Croatian viewers. 6 Tables, 13 References.
