2009 and 2010 were very eventful years in Bulgarian politics and media. The change of government as well as the transformations on the media market provoked new thoughts on the relationship between media and politics. The research resulted in the anthology “Media and Politics” edited by the Media Program South East Europe of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung and the Media Democracy Foundation. The publication makes clear that media fairly well inform yet they are still far from being a genuine Fourth Estate.
