19. ANTITRUST LAWS LIMITING CAPITAL
CONCENTRATION IN THE PRINT MEDIA
No special legislation exists to apply antitrust regulations
to limit the concentration of capital in print media. However, there
are generic rules that apply to all business activities. Article
333 of the Constitution does guarantee economic freedom and private
enterprise, as well as free competition, and establishes that the
State shall not create obstacles to economic freedom and shall control
abuses in this context by individuals or entities.
Article 75 of the National Constitution provides that the electromagnetic
spectrum is a public good, assuring equal opportunities of access
to its use. The same article provides for legal regulations which
have yet to be adopted.
