The Media and Ukraine

July 9, 2011

Marta Dyczok, Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science at the University of Western Ontario and current Fellow of the Woodrow Wilson Center

The media was an important factor in the "Orange Revolution" which swept Ukraine in 2004. The Press was free to cover Ukrainian politics and used its new power with unrestrained enthusiasm. But the independence and determination of Journalists is again in question in Ukraine. Now there are charges that powerful private owners exercise a new version of censorship. Marta Dyczok examines Ukraine's prospects for a universally free and vibrant media.
