Annex 3
The content production process
"The criteria for choosing one suggestion over an other is a. local angle of a
story that international media would not do (we see ourselves as
complementary in this sense), b. if the story represents a trend that occurs in
many different parts of the world that we are covering (these could be
economic, political, or cultural trends), c. if the story will have a different angle,
different spin that other media gave to an event and finally d. if it is counter
intuitive , i.e. the opposite of what is seems to be true is true (the good that
an Islamic foundation does in a CEE or CIS country when everyone accuses
them for religious propaganda and fanaticism for example)" [Nicole Ritter]
