Today Freedom House released the rankings and overview for at the Newseum, Washington DC. Freedom of the Press, annual survey of media independence in 195 countries, has been published since 1980 and is widely regarded as the authoritative assessment of global media freedom. It is already the fifth time that Freedom House has assessed the Armenian Press as “not free”.

“Few of private papers are self-financed and majority depend on business funds and authority relations. Most of the TV channels belong either to pro-governmental political figures or to businessmen associated in the Republican Party”, Freedom House evaluates the state of media in Armenia. Compared with results of 2007 Armenia has made a step back taking the 144th place among 195 countries in the survey of Press Freedom 2008.
