Moldova – Local Elections 2007 OSCE/ODIHR EOM’s Media Monitoring prior to the 1 st round of elections Since the start of the campaign on 4 May, the OSCE/ODIHR EOM has monitored six TV stations and nine daily and weekly newspapers. In addition, the monitoring team has undertaken analysis of the main news broadcasts of two regional TV channels and two radio stations. The media unit has been analyzing the programs and daily publications, assessing and producing findings on the time or space allocated to all candidates and parties running in the local elections, as well as the time/space allocation given to all the relevant political entities. The tone of the coverage was also evaluated. Quantitative analysis measures the total amount of time and space devoted to election contestants on news and information programs. Qualitative analysis evaluates the tone in which the relevant political subjects have been portrayed – positive, neutral or negative. While the monitoring focused on all political and election-related programs and broadcasts in the prime time (from 18:00 till 24:00), the enclosed charts show only coverage of relevant political subjects in the prime time news programs. While the monitoring included all the registered political subjects and entities, the enclosed charts show only those subjects receiving significant amounts of time/space. Complete results of media monitoring, including the patterns observed on other TV channels, radios and newspapers, as well as the coverage provided in the run-up to the 17 June second round contests, will be published concurrently with the final report. Explanation of the charts The pie charts show the total percentage of airtime or space allocated to relevant political subjects for each media outlet in the defined period. The bar charts show the total number of hours and minutes of positive (green), neutral (white) and negative (red) airtime devoted to relevant political subjects by each media outlet in the defined period.
