A pan-European drive to combat incitement to hatred in broadcasts was agreed by national broadcasting regulators meeting in Brussels on 17 March 2005 on the initiative of EU Information Society and Media Commissioner Viviane Reding. Measures agreed by the broadcasting regulators included stepping up information exchange and cooperation to ensure that EU rules which guarantee freedom of the media on the one hand and prohibit broadcasts which contain an incitement to hatred on the other hand, were enforced swiftly, effectively and consistently. |
