Media Lessons From Slovenia: Interesting difference between media coverage of the Church in the U.S. and a nation still emerging from behind the Iron Curtain:

Sirtl believes that “in countries like the United States where there is a long and rich tradition of religious pluralism, many journalists skip the basics of a faith in their reporting and focus on contrasts with other churches. Solely concentrating on differences is often driven by a desire to situate a specific faith within the wider religious mosaic.”

But she says that journalists in Slovenia and other places where such a diversified religious milieu either does not exist or is emerging “have to start from scratch. They are building their knowledge and their stories from the basics.”
