The question of how far the freedom of the media and journalists in Ethiopia extends is a self-evident question.

Experts say that the reasons why journalists and the media in the country overlook or ignore serious issues are worth discussing.
They explain that issues of ownership, differences in worldview, and government interference affect the freedom of the media.

However, in Ethiopia, due to various reasons, the mentioned and other responsibilities have not been adequately fulfilled.
It has been noted that there are many media outlets emerging from the sector.
The problems of the media should be resolved, and they should be able to perform their work freely, free from pressure and government interference. This should be included in the national dialogue agenda, as suggested by journalism ethics instructors at Bahir Dar and Addis Ababa Universities."
