Aflatun Amashev
The weak economic base is the main problem on the way of development of Azerbaijani mass media, said chairman of Azerbaijan's Council of Press Aflatun Amashev during the international conference "Media in democratic society: international and national experience" held in Baku.
"The reason is the weak advertising market. In this connection, mass medias depend on some structures and organizations. It is necessary to take a number of measures aimed at improving the advertising market", he said.
Amashev called the receipt of information from the original source to be the second important problem.
"There is a need to create an effective mechanism of interaction between press and state organizations", he said.
