The number of negative articles has decreased

From 1 to 10 April, 2019, the “Media Advocate” initiative followed online media reports on the third President of the Republic of Armenia, Serzh Sargsyan’s personality and activities.

34 leading Armenian news agencies have been monitored.

In the specified period, 611 articles were declared, 115 of which were negative, 70 were positive and 426 were neutral.

Compared to previous ten days, the number of negative articles has decreased, in contrast to the number of positive articles, which in fact has increased. The main reason of negative articles is considered to be Prime Minister Pashinyan’s policy. Pashinyan and his team still blames Serzh Sargsyan and the previous government both for formerly existing and newly arising and unsolvable issues.
