The first days of the campaign for the general elections in BaH held on 5 October 2002 demonstrated that the media war, supporting of certain and disputing of other political leaders moved from the electronic to the printed media. With the begin of the pre-elections race questions arose as weather these media would overcome the pressure, keep the professional and objective approach during the elections campaign, and in which way would they succeed to “cover” the elections.
