Abstract

BBC Media Action surveyed a nationally representative sample of 1,000 Tunisians in June 2013. The results show that Tunisian audiences believe that the media is better at holding leaders to account than the judiciary. Tunisians want the media to question government officials but do not want to play an active role in this by interacting directly with the media.
