Recommendation 21 (Media) Lebanon 2009

Impartiality and equal access are of particular importance in news, current affairs or discussion programmes and therefore all broadcasters should abide by standards of impartiality in their informative programmes, in line with the obligations set by the election law. While reflecting a polarised political discourse, media organs should be mindful of their responsibility to avoid amplifying or exploiting incitements of hatred or division in their coverage.
