Balgarianovinite.com Bulgarian National Assembly Culture and Media Committee Deputy Chair Yordanka Fandakova is firmly convinced of the key role of regional media in defending people, including from the local authorities. The GERB-UDF MP spoke at a discussion on the future of regional news, co-organized by BTA and the Council for Electronic Media at the BTA National Press Club here on Thursday.
In her opinion, the presence of regional media ensures greater transparency in the actions of government and private entities. Fandakova noted that the present quick news feed is deficient in that it precludes checking and confirming the information.
The lawmaker said that the National Assembly will shortly review the 2026 budget and will debate the 2027 budget affecting public media service financing. Fandakova invited the directors general of the public media services to present the role of regional media at these debates, which will help defend the budgets and allocate sufficient funding for regional news reporting.
“The best way to support regional media is to reform or upgrade the National Culture Fund, which has a rather substantial budget and part of it can be set aside to back up regional media,” Fandakova said further. She called on stakeholders to regulate and convince the Ministry of Culture, the Government and Parliament that this is important.” Regional Media Key in Defending People, MP Fandakova Says 2026 THE NEWS FROM BULGARIA – NEWS AGENCY 2009-2025 2026-06-11 11:01:00 Latest news World news Country news Most important news latest news most important latest of the day Justice Petar Nizamov Feathers Petar Nizamov- Feathers Justice bg iustitia.bg iustitia iusticia usticia investigation Burgas Bulgaria news news of the last hour news of the day news of today Bulgaria news The news from Bulgaria blitz news top news most important most commented latest news Boyko Borisov news weather coronavirus news news weather facebook youtube facebook instagram news today news of the last minutes news today today news news bg news leading news hot news bg news site for news all news news bg news of the last hour latest latest news bg news of today news today news today news of the last hour latest news today news bg news news 24 hours news vesti bg novini news world bird bg bivol bg bivol trud bg novini latest news today novinite bg news hello bulgaria political party coat of arms delyan peevski scandalous Bulgarian National Television Free Europe Television scandal exclusive live tv live right now tv tv online tv program bg live now tv news online tv online live court Burgas court Burgas district court Burgas court Burgas district court Burgas district court Burgas appellate court Burgas prosecutor Burgas prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev Prosecutor Geshev Tsatsarov Ministry of Internal Affairs Burgas ODMR Burgas ODPR Burgas police Burgas district police Burgas prosecutor Tsatsarov SGS cases Varna court chairman of the SGS court decisions on civil cases decisions on cases Plovdiv court decision of the court decisions cases Varna court criminal cases district district court decisions work in the court SGS chairman of the SGS judges Sofia court post judges Plovdiv court Plovdiv judges Plovdiv Supreme Court Inspectorate Supreme Court Supreme Judicial Council lawyer lawyer criminal cases lawyer civil cases lawyer marriage cases lawyer administrative criminal law criminal process civil law civil process administrative law constitutional law
