Although many of the countries have adopted good laws, they have largely failed to put them into practice. "In fact, the average score for this specific category is 1.94, indicating the unsustainable implementation of media laws in 2004," the study added, stressing that problems in implementing free-speech legislation existed in one form or another in all countries except Croatia.
Iako su mnoge zemlje usvojile dobre zakone, uglavnom ih ne sprovode u praksi. “Prosečna ocena za tu konkretnu kategoriju je 1,94, što ukazuje na nedovoljnu primenu medijskih zakona 2004. godine”, kaže se u studiji i naglašava da problemi u sprovođenju zakona koji štite slobodu govora postoje manje-više u svim zemljama, osim u Hrvatskoj.
