With their work on the project, Cvetkovska, Jordanovska and Apostolov exposed details of ownership structure in Macedonian media. Their research was focused primarily on the online news-sites, in the effort to answer the question- whose interests do these media serve, the interests of centers of power, or the public interest and the interests of the citizens of Macedonia.
