Lebanon cherishes its freedom of speech and media, but I don’t feel I am exaggerating if I describe the Lebanese media as a plague which contribute to sectarianism and political void. I tend to come out with a headache or food ingestion when I watch their news.
Of course media can be politicised, but it’s done the wrong way in Lebanon. All sides are on high alert as if they are fighting a war, and the media is one of the weapons and ramparts at the same time.Lebanese media are directed by its political patronage, sectarian inclinations or just urge to show their politicians views with no real substance, reform agenda or impartiality.
