Lebanese Minister: Media Left Unintervened

Lebanese Minister of Information, Paul Marroux, confirmed that the new media legislation in Lebanon represents an important reform step after 70 years of working on an old law. This move aims to keep up with major changes in the media industry, especially with the expansion of digital media and social networking platforms. The law seeks to regulate media operations, combat hate speech, prevent pretrial detention in media-related cases, and includes the establishment of a national media authority. Marroux also emphasized that the legislation removes military court jurisdiction over media cases and relies on specialized judiciary, making it part of the broader process of updating legislative and media institutions. During his speech, he discussed ways to protect journalists from attacks, address the causes of online hostility, and promote a culture of respecting others. He also underscored the importance of regulating social media, setting clear standards for influencers, all while avoiding restrictive measures that limit media freedom.
