Summary/Abstract: In this study we are discussing the current state of the agency public media. Financial and political control over this type of institution raises another issue of today's press, in addition to tabloidization - misinformation. As far as the case study is concerned, we stopped on an episode that took place in 2017 havingg as protagonists the current director of AGERPRES and Lucian Romașcanu, president of the Senate Culture Commission. We notice that there the public press journalist does not depend primarily on the fluctuations of the subjectivity of the public, but on the needs of the Establishment.
