Summary/Abstract: In the last twenty years, we have often witnessed that public broadcasters serve political and economic elites more than the interests of citizens. Deviation from professional principles and legal norms is especially pronounced in the pre-election period, when public broadcasters turn into implicit, but often explicit representatives of certain political options. In the paper, the informative program of public broadcasters in Bosnia and Herzegovina during the pre-election campaign for the General Elections of 2018 was processed through the analysis of media content, with the aim of establishing whether the reporting of public broadcasters corresponds to the principles of responsible and serious journalism.
