Zusammenfassung
All EU member states have independent regulatory authorities for the audiovisual sectors which are, in general, responsible for the concession of licenses, the supervision of public and private media, and the enforcement of punishments for non-compliance with the rules. Despite sharing a good number of capabilities, differences exist in the ways these bodies proceed, the number of members that make them up, and their processes of appointment. Upon these foundations, lies the key that distinguishes the degree of independence and the democratic well-being of their mission.
