Armenians in Georgia - Media

Media

Tbilisi was an important center for Armenian language publications, including the publishing of "Haratch" by the Armenian Revolutionary Federation for the period 1906 to 1909. It included as editors and writers renowned political and literary names.

After restrictions by the Russian authorities, the newspaper was replaced by "Horizon" that was not affiliated with any specific political party and went on publishing until 1918.

Presently, an Armenian newspaper "Vrastan" is published in Tbilisi in Armenian.

Famous quotes containing the word media:

    The corporate grip on opinion in the United States is one of the wonders of the Western World. No First World country has ever managed to eliminate so entirely from its media all objectivity—much less dissent.
    Gore Vidal (b. 1925)

    Never before has a generation of parents faced such awesome competition with the mass media for their children’s attention. While parents tout the virtues of premarital virginity, drug-free living, nonviolent resolution of social conflict, or character over physical appearance, their values are daily challenged by television soaps, rock music lyrics, tabloid headlines, and movie scenes extolling the importance of physical appearance and conformity.
    Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
