Journalists and media experts discussed self-censorship on Tuesday at the Council for Electronic Media (CEM) at an event on on the topic "Self-censorship: a Problem for Bulgarian Journalism?". The reason for the conversation was the latest study on freedom of speech by the Association of European Journalists, which reported at the end of last year a growth in self-censorship among journalists, CEM recalled. According to the research data, the greatest external pressure on reporters was exerted by politicians, state institutions, economic entities and advertisers.
