Abstract: The role of the media in contemporary world is extremely significant, although it is partly ignored as a factor in the economic development of countries. The new media era marks the rise of the media business, relying on the data and analysis in the broad space. This provokes interest in studying the role of national media in the economic policy uncertainty in two European countries – Greece and Italy. Based on the conducted dynamic and comparative analysis of the Economic Policy Uncertainty Index (EPU), the role of national media on the uncertainty of economic policies of the two countries is examined. Key economic events have been derived and an estimate of the index development over the next three years – 2020-2022 has been made.
