CONSTITUTIONAL AND LEGAL BASES OF FUNCTIONING OF MASS MEDIA

Abstract

The solution to this problem is the adoption of a number of legislative amendments allowing certain procedural stages, consistent with the goals and objectives of the procedure, and clearly define the purpose of the application of coercive measures; formulate the grounds for the application of coercive measures to the various subjects of coercion and to carefully consider their procedural status; to justify the appearance of the grounds and procedure for the application of coercive measures.At the end of the article, the opinion was expressed that the protection of a journalist should be provided in a special manner, only then, in practice, it will be possible to achieve the implementation of the requirement necessary for the development of civil society ‒ freedom of thought and expression by media representatives. It is concluded that this freedom is guaranteed to every person, but its practical implementation in journalistic activity reflects the degree of freedom of thought and expression of the whole society.
