The Guard does not allow the media at the November 29 ceremony, the journalist: Ridicule and insult! They tell us it is staged

It seems that it has already become a rule that journalists are not allowed to participate in various activities organized by the government, even though they are not partisan.

Journalist Osman Stafa has denounced today on social networks that the media was not allowed to enter the memorial ceremony where the fallen are honored every November 29 at the Martyrs' Cemetery.

According to him, the Guard stopped them under the pretext that the activity will be staged.

"Today, November 29, at the Martyrs' Cemetery, as every year, a memorial ceremony is held to honor the fallen.

But unlike every other year, this year the MEDIA is not allowed to go inside and film.

It hasn't happened in any other year. It's happening for the first time!

I need to develop live links for the TV I work, from the Cemetery of the Martyrs. Because this is not a party activity, so that we are not allowed. The Guard of the Republic only says that the media is not allowed, that it is centrally directed. It does not say who gave the order.

It goes to the main entrance, let's say, the passage for the media, it's from the back. You go to the next entrance, where they tell you that you are not allowed.

Ridicule and insults to the media.

If there is an incident in this activity, the "management" of the institution that organizes it has an interest in hiding it.

It has already become stale, the idea that journalists are not allowed to direct it.

Journalists should be allowed. This is our job. It cannot dictate our agenda of plans, texts, views, politics. What we have as the subject of our news.

Journalists must enter any event, whether directed or not. And this should be standard.

I want to film myself, take the plans I want, interview who I think I should.

The other is censorship!!! ", writes the journalist.
