Abstract [eng] The article examines special features of the image of judges presented during so called paedophilia scandal. Qualitative and quantitative content analysis was applied in order to analyse selected publications of the informational portal Delfi and daily paper Lietuvos rytas. The results revealed, that at the beginning of paedophilia scandal (October 2009) Delfi paid more attention to negative information about judges, while Lietuvos rytas paid more attention to neutral and positive information. However, later (November 2010 and March 2012) the amount of information, which called the integrity and objectivity of judges into question, increased in both media sources. Although negative and compromising information about judges was predominant in Delfi and Lietuvos rytas (consisted 58,8 percent and 45 percent respectively), image of judges presented in Delfi was more negative, compared to the one in Lietuvos rytas. In addition, image of judges presented in Delfi could convince and influence readers more, as more than a half (61,1 percent) of information announced in Delfi was based on the facts, while more than a half (52,8 percent) of information announced in Lietuvos rytas was based on somebody‘s opinion. The results suggest that during so called paedophilia scandal image of judges presented in informational portal Delfi and daily paper Lietuvos rytas could reduce the authority of judges and cause doubts and distrust in court decisions.
