Questão jurídica principal
Whether the three TV reports on Yasmin violated the accuracy requirement in broadcasting law.
Decisão extraída
No. The reports were recognizably advocacy journalism, but they gave the audience sufficient context, contrasting views, and factual basis to form its own judgment.
Fundamentação extraída
The Court held that the broadcasts did not manipulate viewers: the central allegations were presented as questions, Bayer’s position and Swissmedic’s explanations were aired repeatedly, and the emotional framing did not eliminate audience understanding of the controversy.
