Heřmanská, Lucie ; Osvaldová, Barbora (advisor) ; Chudoba, David (referee)
A bachelor's thesis on Changes in Media with the Arrival of a New Owner. Case Study: MF DNES deals with the functioning of periodicals' ownership in the Czech Republic. In particular, it aims to present the current situation in the area with the example of daily newspaper Mladá fronta Dnes, which after many years of operating under a foreign owner, German company Rheinisch-Bergische Verlagsgesellschaft passed into the ownership of Czech businessman and current Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Andrej Babiš. After his entry into the said most popular Czech broadsheet newspaper, doubts began to appear in public discourse on whether media owned by a both politically and entrepreneurially significant person can be independent. This paper therefore monitors changes that have occurred in the Mladá fronta Dnes periodical with the arrival of the new owner, and also whether the media image of Mr. Babiš's person and his interests has been improved upon through the articles of the newspaper. The results presented here were obtained with the use of a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods of analysis, and they show that there has been a substantial increase in contributions regarding the new owner, though their impact was rather negative.
