In the past few years, there have often been media articles about lawsuits against the media outlets (publisher) or journalist themselves. The aim of this research is to point out the existence of a media structure when reporting on lawsuits against journalists and media outlets in Croatia. The main research question is: Is media reporting on lawsuits reflection of facts or is there a media construction that magnifies the problem beyond the actual facts in favor of the respondent media or journalists? In the first part of this research paper, I present information on journalistic lawsuits collected from 21 courts in Croatia. The second part of the research paper are the media lawsuit case studies that were most reported from 2013 to 2018. In 5 studies I conducted a qualitative and quantitative content analysis. In this paper due to time and space constraints I analzyed only online articles. After finishing content analysis I selected 5 people I interviewed, whether they were respondent journalists or reporters reporting on lawsuits. Conclusion of this research paper is that there is no media construction that magnifies the problem beyond real facts when it comes to reporting about lawsuits against media or media outlets. After getting better acquainted with the legal framework I notice in all five case studies there is some controversy, either about the verdict or about the person who initiated the lawsuit, the plaitfill. There were no reports of lawsuits against the media in which the lawsuit was initiated by someone other than a public figure. There were also no reports of lawsuits against the media in which the journalist violated the legal or ethical rules of the profession.
