“…584 Das Internet ist somit vom herrschaftsfreien Diskurs weit entfernt. 585 Insofern besteht eine gewisse Ähnlichkeit zu publizistischen Medien, deren Auswahlentscheidungen ebenfalls nicht überprüfbar sind. Allerdings haben sich die Medien durch ihre journalistisch-reflexive Leistung im Unterschied zu Suchmaschinen und sozialen Netzwerken Glaubwürdigkeitskapital in Form von Reputation aufgebaut.…”

If the journalistic media are to be able to effectively perform their essential democratic tasks of shaping public opinion and controlling state power, they must be independent of the state. At the same time, this same state must guarantee a diverse range of media and inform the public about its activities. This tension is exacerbated in the Internet age, in which expensive journalistic content production is considered less and less secure. As a result, the state's duty to safeguard media pluralism, for example by organizing a public service system or other support measures, and to carry out active public relations work is updated. This in turn increases the danger that the state will influence media activity or become a media provider itself. What limits the state has to observe in this context is elaborated in this book on the basis of a cross-media genre constitutional and international law analysis of the principle of state independence of the media.

Democratically legitimized European integration calls for developments in culture and society—which arise naturally in the scope of on-going political, economic and institutional European Union (EU) integration—to be publically debated so they may be politically processed. The space where this happens is the public sphere, or, in the context of the EU, the European public sphere. The latter complements national public spheres. Successful integration among EU Member States is made possible by adhering to a common set of values at the same time as respecting the national identities of the Member States and fostering cultural diversity. By way of Union citizenship rights, individuals are able to make use of and actively promote the Europeanization of societies and cultures. Yet citizens are affected by Europeanization to differing degrees, with only a minority of citizens actively partaking in transnational exchange. In order to account for European integration democratically, the EU treaties hold provisions allowing for a close institutional interdependence of national and European democracy.
