Aiming to expand our understanding of the strengths and limitations of the concept of media capture, this Special Issue of the Central European Journal of Communication offers a combination of theoretical articles and case studies authored by young and senior scholars that together discuss and make use of the concept as an analytical tool. While some authors call our attention to the need to problematize better the connection between media capture and related concepts such as media instrumentalization and party colonization, others apply it to shed light on how media companies, systems and newsrooms at large are trimmed in their capacity to scrutinize power structures due to their capture by political and economic power structures.
