Comment

Obliged Subjects are banned from using public media with electoral purposes. In regards to private media propaganda, the equity principle determines that television companies can´t discriminate any political party, candidate, alliance or independant candidature in the adquisition of their services for electoral purposes. Also, Superior Electoral Tribunal has the obligation of promoting the suscription of an agreement based in equity principle, that allows political parties the possibility of having access to private media coverage.
