Through this debate, the media helps shape opinions, highlights social problems and plays an essential &ldquo;watchdog&rdquo; role (see the European Court of Human Rights judgment in <em>Bladet Tromso and Stensaas v. Norway<\/em> dated May 20, 1999).<\/p>\n<p>As such, the task of the media goes beyond merely disseminating facts and ideas, and the public can expect it to perform this broader role&nbsp;(see Constitutional Court judgment file no. I. &Uacute;S 156\/99 dated February 8, 2000,).<\/p>\n<p>According to the Czech Constitutional Court, there is a need to take into account the role of the media (as opposed to a specialist publication, for example) in informing the broad public. In certain cases:<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:35.4pt\">[t]he media must &ndash; especially given the scope of certain articles and reader interest &ndash; engage in a certain amount of simplification and it cannot simply be argued that any simplification (or distortion) automatically infringes the rights of relevant persons. As a result, complete accuracy cannot be expected in factual reporting, and reporters cannot be forced to comply with standards which &ndash; ultimately &ndash; are unattainable (Constitutional Court decision dated February 8, 2000, file no. I. &Uacute;S 156\/99).<\/p>\n<p>The European Court of Human Rights took a similar view in its judgment in <em>Fressoz and Roire v. France<\/em> on January 21, 1999. The court went so far as to point out that the &ldquo;freedom enjoyed by journalists also includes some freedom to exaggerate or even provoke.&rdquo;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The media has a vital role to play in any democratic state since it provides an important information platform and drives debate over matters of broad social significance.
