In the era of the supremacy of GAFAN, artificial intelligence honduras cell phone number list and Big Data, how can you stand out as a public service media? In Media for Good , Guillaume Klossa publishes a plea on the major role that European public media must play in the digital space. For the special advisor to the Vice-President of the European Commission in charge of digital, public media must make ethical use of new technologies for the benefit of citizens and act in a coordinated manner at European level.




The observation is clear. The media , historically considered in Europe as an essential pillar of democratic life, are the subject of a real crisis of confidence. According to the Edelman trust barometer (which meta-media summarizes here ), distrust of the media reached 47% in January 2019.

Several factors linked to the digitalization of the media ecosystem can explain this loss of confidence.
