Abstract:

The changes in political, social, and economic climates in Eastern European countries in the beginning of 1990s redefined understanding of journalism and influenced journalistic practices. To illuminate journalism professionalization process in Slovakia, this paper examines the role of journalism perceived by Slovak media professionals. The paper discusses the definitions of good journalism found in scholarly literature and compares those to the definitions of good journalism provided by Slovak media professionals.The data presented in this paper was collected in Slovakia in the spring of 1999. Politically, this time in Slovakia is a fruitful one to look at the press. The October 1998 parliamentary election in Slovakia, just five months prior to the NATO bombing action in Yugoslavia, had changed the nation's ruling party, and the response to the NATO bombing highlighted public opinion and tensions on topics that had been influential in the hotly debated election. These included Slovakia's entry into the European Union, its entry into NATO, its relationships with Western Europe, its relationships with Russia, its relationships with other Slavic states, and the appropriate models for government and media relationships.
