What kind of information do you want from media? (Political, economical, cultural, social…etc)
Tuesday, September 6
“I think that all kinds of information is needed and each of them should be given balanced time. People should get full information on all issues going on in the country.”
Salome, Journalist, 31
“I like entertaining programs most of all, as I think that the news programs in Georgia broadcast only negative information and if someone watches it every day, nervous problems are guaranteed for him. Entertaining programs enable us to rest and relax. “
Giorgi, Dancer, 24
“I am interested in cultural news; I think that Georgian TV programs and media in general lacks this information . Mainly Georgian media is oriented on politics, economy, entertainment programs and scandalous issues, which is not a good tendency, to my mind.”
Giga, Manager, 28
“As a musician, I would definitely prefer getting more cultural news.”
Oto, Singer, 23
“I would mostly prefer receiving cultural and social news as well as about local and international projects and innovative technologies.”
Nutsa, Bank Accountant, 27
“I would mostly appreciate OP-ED – or opinion pieces, that's what I value the most... but it should be thorough and should be written in a coherent way.”
Koka, Journalist, 22
“Most of all I’m interested in political and social news because I’m a journalist and I constantly need material for a good and well-balanced article.”
Lili, Reporter, 34
“I think the Georgian media lacks innovations because all the TV and radio channels offer the same things but in different manner. What I miss most of all is a good educational program like Discovery channel or National Geographic offer the large international audiences every day.”
Tatia, Manager, 46
“I think most men and boys would “vote” for sports especially nowadays when the Georgian basketball (and not only basketball) team is having significant success on the international arena. I wish Georgia will have more success in future because this all would be reflected on the TV programs as well and they would offer more interesting local sport issues.”
Atvo, Engineer, 51
“Political information is very important for me, and I want more political shows and debates on TV. There are enough programs on the radio, however few programs on TV.
Shmagi, Physicist, 48
“Impartial information about Georgian and global economic trends are important, since they impact all business activity in the country. I run a business and watch economic news, however, I am dissatisfied with the quality of news broadcast by Georgian channels.
