Transparency and cooperative decision making within the media<br />

Although the power of the media is substantially greater than that of the politicians,<br />

those in power within the media world have in no way been chosen by the people – nor<br />

does the media have any transparency when it comes to their decision-making. By and<br />

large, nobody in the media has any moral responsibility nor are they held accountable<br />

for their actions when they ruin lives for the sake of making headlines. In addition, the<br />

wealthy have the ability to buy media and thereby gain power and control over people’s<br />

minds. Only those who lie to themselves, or others, can call this “democracy”. The Nordic<br />

Resistance Movement will ensure that the people will be given both transparency<br />

into the media and the opportunity to themselves own media.<br />

We view media as not only a scrutinizer of those in power, but also as being in a position<br />

of significant power themselves. This is why the transparency policy, as applied to the<br />

government, should also apply to the media. This is particularly important when considering<br />

the inner workings of the media, in other words how decisions are made, who<br />

is financing them, etc. However, the transparency policy will not apply to a confidential<br />

source, as whistleblowers must have the right to be anonymous.<br />

It is essential that the media be able to investigate and scrutinize those in power in order<br />

to combat corruption. The media does not have the right to be hostile against the people<br />

or the government, but if, for example, a senator has undoubtedly proven to be corrupt,<br />

then the media would be in the right to reveal this to the people. Acts such as these are<br />

not to be viewed as anti-Nordic. On the contrary, they are to be viewed as pro-Nordic<br />

as exposing such issues helps counteract and prevent corruption and abuse within the<br />

government.<br />

The Nordic Resistance Movement will:<br />

• Redistribute parts of the confiscated media to cooperatives and organizations.<br />

Through government grants and funds, promote a diversity of media.<br />

• Ensure that a majority of Nordic media is owned by the government, that is to say<br />

the people. Government-owned media will work for the people. Commercial media<br />

is allowed to act freely as long as they do not carry out hostile, or in any way subversive,<br />

propaganda against the people.<br />

• Assure that the transparency policy also applies to media, with the exception of<br />

confidential sources. Every individual citizen should be able to ”audit the auditor”.<br />
