The loan amounted to eur 8 million and was intended for further expansion of the company and reinforcing of its position on the Slovenian media market, as was asserted in the public statement.

In this essay I look into the presence of the Roman Catholic Church (hereinafter referred to as the Church) in the media during the pre-election period. This opening statement also contains my first conclusion.

The only exception is the constitution of Lesotho, which provides that 'any person who feels aggrieved by statements or ideas disseminated to the public by a medium of communication has the right to reply or to require correction to be made using the same medium under such conditions as the law may establish'.

On the same day, the participants at an election confrontation commented on a typical Mahnič-style statement that 'the one who is not Roman Catholic is not a Slovenian'. The Minister of Culture himself minimized the scandalousness of this statement because in his opinion what was much worse was some sports ad featured in the media at that time, which invited the supporters of the national football team to jump and cheer (TV 1, 27 September 2000).

This criterion was not only referred to in statements by politicians, but also Red Cross representatives claimed that "we have come to the point where we can't help anymore," and its general acceptance was signalled by the matter-of-fact way in which it was echoed in the media, as in (5):

The following statement pertains to the demonstrations organized by French intellectuals which were - in contrast to the Slovenian situation involving intellectuals - aimed against Le Pen and the government which adopted a radical anti-immigration law; this law has received critical assessments in some Slovenian media.

The other shareholders are the state fund kad (10.11 percent), Večer, the publisher of the Večer daily (6.6 percent), and the largest state-owned mobile operator, Mobitel (2.7 percent).According to public statements, kd Holding reportedly sold its 25.7 percent share in Dnevnik, along with its 29.8 percent share in the Sarajevo Oslobo?enje daily, to the Austrian company Styria Medien ag.

Instead, the central purport of the statement that was published in and commented on by both the left and the right oriented media (Dnevnik, 25 September 2000, Radio Ognjišče, 24 September 2000) was a lesson on how the right to vote is not just a right but a duty as well. Accordingly, 'believers in particular should fulfill their duty and cast a ballot' as 'nothing can justify their failure to go to the polls'.

Conclusions can be drawn from commentaries in the Church media that highlighted the points that were only implied in the Bishop's statement: the pressure on Christians voters to cast their ballot originated in the fear that abstaining from the elections would be the most widespread among the supporters of the rightwing parties who would stay at home on election day because they were disappointed over the conflicts within Coalition Slovenia that intensified just before the elections.

Dr. Veljko Troha from the Expert Council for Education assessed this brochure as unsuitable for young people, stating that it did not 'take into account our, Slovene, family mentality.'The Association for the Democratization of the Mass Media headed by Prof. Anton Dolenc, a doctor of medicine and the president of the Slovene Medical Association, joined the criticism of the brochure on the grounds that it promoted group sex. Its statement, given by Prof. Anton Dolenc on behalf of the Association, said that 'unnatural forms of sexuality, often involving abuse, ... are mainly practiced by people of different sexual orientation, who should be tolerated and who are also entitled to receive suitable medical treatment.

The following conclusions were outstanding: the media are under the influence of President Milan Kučan (an ex-Communist) and Slovenia has the worst form of censorship (Družina, 17 September 2000); auto-censorship is prevailing among journalists, the media incessantly attack the Church, and the state's attitude towards the Church is insipid (this being the standpoint of the newly founded governmental party NSi, whose leader, Dr. Bajuk, was the Prime Minister at that time and active in the election campaign; Radio Slovenia 1, 18 September 2000); due to the media obstruction, the achievements of Bajuk's government were not sufficiently presented to the public; not one opinion poll is competent because the public opinion is a 'monopoly opinion'; the worst form of censorship in Slovenia occurred precisely during the pre-election period; 'the Catholic Church lacks the required political weight despite its majority position'; journalists on the national TV channel attempted to break down the 'Spring Parties' (Radio Ognjišče, 28-29 September 2000); the Apostolic Nuncio stated that Slovenian national TV neglected religious topics and that one of the Slovenian weekly magazines persistently hunted for scandalous events within the Church (Dnevnik, 13 October 2000); the latter is a reference to a sexually provocative drawing of Archbishop Franc Rode published by Mladina weekly magazine (the drawing was one in a series of other similar ones showing many other reputed politicians equally stripped, both from the right and the left wing, and other media personalities; the same magazine, which is, in the opinion of the Church, expressly left-oriented, criticizes in each issue at least one representative of the left parties, the LDS or president Kučan, and moreover, it is possible to find in it certain standpoints in favor of the right wing; all this applies to the pre-election period as well, see Mladina 18 September 2000); the Prime Minister and the leader of the NSi asserted on the national radio station that 'in Slovenia, right before the elections, there is a total blockade of the media' (Radio 1, 29 October 2000) and stressed in the same breath that he did not trust the public opinion polls that forecast election results, explaining his statement as follows: he does not trust the polls that predict negative election results, nor those that forecast positive results, he trusts 'one thing only, that is, when I walk around our countryside and see people....' (TV 3, 9 October 2000); the Government Public Relations and Media Office criticized the one-sidedness of the media, stating that Slovenian media are similar to those in Serbia, that they foment 'firebrand propaganda' and 'throw mud at Janez Janša, Andrej Bajuk, Franc Rode and Marjan Podobnik' (ibid. 6 October 2000, POP TV, 6 October 2000); the most nervous of all is the national TV station (Večer, 12 October 2000) etc.
