Abstract
after the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime, the Iraqi media is quite contradictory and difficult to understand. If earlier they were subject to the constant control of one ruling party and the government, today private television broadcasting appears. Since 2003, information, news, programs, and events have been broadcast directly and openly. The technical support of Iraq's TV and Internet channels with its own near-Earth satellites is being considered. The Iraqi media has faced enormous difficulties, given the rapid changes that have taken place in this area. Having so many media outlets, especially after more than three decades of authoritarian control, censorship and persecution during the Baath regime, is a great achievement for Iraqis on their way to integration into the world community. However, in its current disorderly state, the Iraqi media mainly serves the interests of individuals, who tend to be guided mainly by political or economic motives. One of the problems is that the Iraqi Government must lay the foundation and legislative framework for a more responsible and professional media in Iraqi society. In order for the Iraqi media to realize their potential, Iraqi media workers must be given the opportunity to truly lead the process of rebuilding responsible and professional media. A number of channels have been analyzed for the repeatability of news and the influence of content sources. Iraqi local TV channels and satellite channels, radio, magazines are now competing for the right to broadcast, broadcast and report the latest news.
