The author argues that exploring the functions of television is top priority for all current media theories. All accounts of the functions of television emphasize the informative role of television which makes television news important. In any study of news programming, specific features of TV news must be identified, and fundamental professional criteria in the news selection and interpretation defined. In that way the informative role of a certain broadcast may be strengthened and professional standards applied. The text also analyses the situation on the HTV and reviews some recent studies of news editing and selection policies in Croatia. The author thinks that thorough research of television journalism is needed to put some order into the concepts and definitions of TV journalism and TV news. All the future studies of the television medium will contribute greatly to the quality of Croatian TV journalism on the whole and raise the professional standards; also, they might come in handy for the education of future journalists.
