Opinion suggest that people are dissatisfied with radio stations in
Armenia. According to the facts the Center presented in a discussion

better format.

they broadcast what is popular to attract companies to place their
advertisements.
The directors of radio stations say this sphere is young in Armenia
and there is shortage of professionals. Money is essential for quality
programs, which always lacks. Armen Amiryan, the director of the
Public Radio, thinks that the radio stations do not have quality
production because they have money shortage. Armen Amiryan says
economy in Armenia is monopolized, there is no competition and
advertising, therefore radio stations are not sustainable. The

towards improvement of radio production would be ending monopoly to
establish the necessary economic environment for the development of
this sphere.
