        At this point we are faced with the problem of clarifying the line between public and political interests on the one hand and the political and public spheres   11  . What is even more important,   12  , is to realize the difference between liberalism and radical social democracy. Liberals do not trust those holding political power. They worry that power corrupts and harms civil rights. They will not believe that the government wants to turn the media into independent public service corporations, but rather that the government wants to use them   13   to weaken the opposition and monopolize power. Radical social democrats believe that, in addition to politics, there is a public sphere   14   belongs to the citizenry. They believe that turning media into independent public service corporations is different from nationalization; the interests and will of society should be   15   represented by political forces.
