lpv:translated text	"Mr President, information conveys what is happening objectively and is good for a democracy. PR and propaganda are about selling something for which there is no demand. The Commission was reasonably successful in maintaining the balance between information and propaganda but, unfortunately, the report is along the lines of more propaganda. Naturally, there is always a desire to appear in a positive light, but EU institutions need to be classed in the same category as authorities that are obliged factually and correctly to describe rules, laws and the work they do. I am therefore opposed to paragraph 5, according to which universities are to spread the EU’s values instead of critical thinking, analysis and knowledge. I object to paragraph 9, which is all about pure product placement, something we usually try to restrict. The calls for a European Parliament TV channel are unrealistic. It is better to have fair conditions for public service television and tougher rules to combat media concentration."@en1
