    Last December the Open Society NGO held monitoring of coverage of
    European topics in the four Karabakh media. Afterwards the NGO held
    training for the reporters of the print media. The second phase of
    the monitoring was held in March 2008. The list of the monitored
    media includes the Azat Artsakh and the Demo newspapers, the Public
    Television of Artsakh and the web site Karabakh-Open.com.

    The monitoring is part of the program "European Integration"
    implemented with the funding of International Alert.

    According to the results of the monitoring, in March, in
    Karabakh-Open.com European topics were covered 50 times, all neutrally,
    in the Demo 28 times (26 times neutrally and 2 times positively), in
    the Azat Artsakh 23 times (12 times positively and 11 times neutrally),
    on Public Television of Artsakh 49 times (18 times positively and 31
    times neutrally).

    Karabakh-Open.com touched upon the expediency of European integration
    5 times neutrally, the Demo 4 times (3 neutrally and 1 positively),
    the Azat Artsakh did not touch upon it at all, and on Public Television
    it was mentioned once and positively.

    As to the participation of Europe in the settlement of the Karabakh
    issue, Karabakh-Open.com mentioned it 19 times (neutrally), the Demo
    12 times (neutrally), the Azat Artsakh 8 times neutrally and 3 times
    positively, and Artsakh TV 24 times (7 positively and 17 neutrally).

    The European organizations were mentioned 45 times in
    Karabakh-Open.com, 17 times in the Demo, 12 times in the Azat Artsakh,
    33 times on TV. In addition, the European organizations were never
    mentioned negatively.

    The European culture generally was discussed 3 times in
    Karabakh-Open.com, once in the Demo, 5 times in the Azat Artsakh and
    5 times on Artsakh TV.

    The ratio of own reports to stories from other sources was 12 to 38 in
    Karabakh-Open.com. 12 to 16 in the Demo, 6 to 17 in the Azat Artsakh,
    14 to 35 on TV.

    As part of the project, a contest of stories on European topics
    is held. In June the results will be summed up, and the active
    participants of the contest will be invited to a round-table meeting
    in Stepanakert.

    All the stories will be posted in Karabakh-Open.com.
