Abstract

The chapter delves into the complex media environment in Solomon Islands, where foreign influence, particularly from China, is reshaping the landscape. It examines the vulnerabilities of local media, including financial struggles and political interference, and the crucial role of transnational broadcasters like ABC in providing independent news. The case study also explores the impact of digital access and social media on information dissemination, and the efforts of organizations like ABC International Development to support local media. The chapter underscores the importance of media independence in maintaining democratic values and the challenges faced by journalists in reporting sensitive stories. It concludes by emphasizing the need for transnational broadcasters to ensure the provision of unbiased information, especially in regions vulnerable to foreign influence.
