Reflex (magazine)
''Reflex'' is a Czech weekly magazine focusing on political, social and cultural topics. It was founded in 1990 and is currently owned by company Czech News Center. It is one of the Czech Republic's most controversial and widely read social-political magazines; its print circulation of 60,000 copies (as of January, 2010) reaches approximately 270,000 readers. Polls conducted by the Czech Publishers Association (''Unie vydavatelů'') in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 placed ''Reflex'' first in its category.〔 ''"Unie vydavatelů v roce 2009 už počtvrté za sebou uznala kvalitu Reflexu opětovným udělením 1. místa a titulu Časopis roku v kategorii Společenský časopis."''〕
== Background ==
''Reflex'' was founded in 1990 following the Velvet Revolution in Czechoslovakia. Its first editor-in-chief, Petr Hájek and a group of promising, like-minded Czech journalists established its combination of political news journal and life style magazine. The result was an original and distinctively Czech approach to current affairs. Hájek's ideas and format were vindicated〔 as Reflex gradually created its own niche within an expanding and increasingly competitive market for Czech periodicals. In 1993 Hájek won the disapproval of some of his colleagues when he sold Reflex to the Swiss corporation Ringier without prior consultation: Josef Klíma, a co-founder of ''Reflex'' and a prominent Czech investigative journalist, remembers Hájek as ''"the greatest disappointment in my life"''〔 ''"Petr Hájek je největším zklamáním mého života"''〕 Hájek left to work as a media consultant in marketing and advertising.〔 ''"Hájek po krátkém čase časopis prodal a pak se řadu let věnoval podnikání v oblasti reklamy a marketingu."''〕 From 2003 - 2008 he was campaigner and spokesman for his long-standing political ally, Czech President Václav Klaus.〔 ''"Po boku Václava Klause se pohybuje od devadesátých let, podílel se i na kampani ODS."''〕
In 1995, Ringier appointed Petr Bílek as ''Reflex editor-in-chief. During Bilek's 13 year tenure the magazine's style and orientation shifted profoundly. According to him, Reflex's position in the early 90's was ''"idyllic, due to non-existent competition"''. Its early editions ran to around 200,000 copies; ''Reflex'' and a single significant competitor, ''Respekt'', dominated the free media market. According to Bílek, early ''Reflex'' journalism was founded on a ''"very uncompromising"'', critical approach to Czechoslovakia's communist past and the surviving remnants of communist attitudes and institutions. As Czech society changed, ''Reflex'' kept pace under Bilek, whose editorial policy shifted focus away from the past towards contemporary political events and social changes but its earlier "idyllic" position was eroded by an increasingly competitive, diversified market. Part of its earlier readership was apparently lost to a revamped and modernised ''Respekt''〔 but it retained a substantial share of the market and remains popular with readers and advertisers: independent estimates found a likely target readership of approximately 270,000 for its January 2010 print circulation of 60,000 copies,〔 making it the most successful advertising vehicle of 2010 among Czech political-social magazines.〔 In 2008, Bílek stepped down. He was replaced by Pavel Šafr, former editor-in-chief of the newspapers ''Mladá fronta DNES'' and ''Lidové noviny'': from 2010, Bílek served ''Reflex'' as an external editor. In 2010, the ''NY Times'' described ''Reflex'' as one of the leading weekly periodicals in the Czech Republic.
