Abstract: Abstract The most obvious political pressures exerted by politicians on broadcasting are attempts at direct intervention through complaints, suggestions and threats. These may be voiced privately or in public, that is, with the back-up of adverse publicity. Another variant of this method is the attempt to influence broadcasters through informal relations and contacts. In some of the countries studied politicians have disclaimed the use of such pressures. In all the countries studied they have actually used at least some of them — with relish.
