공영방송의 공정성ㆍ중립성과 언론의 자유 보장에 관한 고찰 -일본 공영방송 법제의 법적 구조 분석을 중심으로- = A Study on the Fairness and Neutrality of Public Broadcasting and the Guarantee of Freedom of Speech -Centered on the Analysis of the Legal Structure of Public Broadcasting Legislation-

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Regardless of public and private broadcasting, broadcasting must guarantee freedom of expression or freedom of speech, but fairness, and neutrality of broadcasting are required in that information delivered to the general public should be objective and fair. Such broadcasting fairness, fairness, and neutrality require a kind of content justification added to freedom of expression and freedom of speech, and are sometimes recognized as opposing logic. However, since the logic and value of the opposite are compatible, the proper function of broadcasting can be performed for the first time. Considering administrative and criminal sanctions as a means to ensure fairness, fairness, and neutrality of broadcasting, it can lead to unfair interference and intervention by administrative or political, and may undermine or infringe on freedom of expression or freedom of speech.
The purpose of this article is to examine what measures are needed to balance the value of fairness, fairness, and neutrality of broadcasting with freedom of expression and freedom of speech. Therefore, I would like to introduce and examine Japanese broadcasting legislation, especially public broadcasting legislation, and analyze what measures are taken under Japanese law to ensure fairness, fairness, neutrality, and freedom of speech. Specifically, the broadcasting law stipulating Japan's public broadcasting and the legal structure of the Japan Broadcasting Association (NIPPON HOSOKYOKAI) established, organized and operated under the law are the main analysis targets. The issue of this analysis is about the autonomy of broadcasting derived from freedom of expression and speech and the regulations on broadcasting that confront it. In other words, it aims to draw implications for the value judgment and institutional composition important in discussing fairness, fairness, neutrality and freedom of expression in public broadcasting by considering the neutrality and independence of public broadcasting.
