Abstract

The purpose of the preliminary Draft General Law on Audiovisual Communication of 2020 is to transpose into the Spanish legal system the Audiovisual Communication Services Directive (EU) 2018/1808 on the coordination of legal and administrative provisions relating to the provision of audiovisual media services. The following essay makes a detailed analysis of the preliminary Draft based on allegations drawn up by representative associations of the sector during the public consultation period. The analysis shows that the text is susceptible to improvements related to: operation, management and ownership of the lending entities; content, citizenship and ethical codes; Third Sector media; audiovisual authorities; media literacy; indicators and advertising. Also on the financing of the Public Radio Television and the contents disseminated by influencers.
