Analysis of media reporting and the effects of media reporting on gender-based violence against women and girls in family and partner relationships
This report has been prepared with two primary objectives. The first is to examine how the media in Montenegro report on gender-based violence (GBV) through the analysis of a sample of 2,661 media reports and to what extent they adhere to the principles of journalistic professionalism and ethical reporting. The second objective is to employ an innovative experimental method to assess the extent and nature of the influence that media reporting on this subject exerts on citizens’ attitudes, opinions, and subsequent behaviour.
