How much has the media changed in the last 30 years? What is the role of media and social media in the era of digital revolution in Greece and beyond?
These questions are answered by Stelios Papathanasopoulos, professor at the Department of Communication and Mass Media of the University of Athens, as a guest on the show “Remarkable Personalities” presented by Mina Ralli.
Mr. Papathanasopoulos talks about the transition of the Greek media to the digital age, the crisis of newspapers, the evolution of pay-TV and the “platform society”. It explains why radio remains the most reliable media and reveals how many hours Greeks and Europeans listen to radio on average.
He also analyzes the findings of the project “European Media Platforms: Assessing Positive and Negative Externalities for European Culture”, funded by the EU Horizon 2020 research program and is focusing on the contemporary field of media.
