    VIENNA, 2006 - Armenia has made significant progress in improving media
    legislation, but media pluralism remains limited to the independent,
    but financially weak, print media, OSCE Representative on Freedom of
    the Media Miklos Haraszti said in a report released today.

    Haraszti prepared the report following an assessment visit to
    Yerevan between 19 and 21 July. "In order for Armenia to continue
    the process of media democratization, the broadcasting sector needs
    to reflect diversity of opinion, and the composition of all boards
    should represent the political and social diversity of the country,"
    Haraszti said. "Although Armenia has a good set of laws and has
    adopted a progressive Freedom of Information Law, their proper
    implementation should be ensured."
