Dear friends, Here is a statement for your kind information. Regards, Nava Thakuria, President, Bimal Ghosh (RD), Secretary, Bhaskarjyoti Bhuyan, Treasurer Electronic Media Forum Assam, Guwahati-781001
EMFA condemns Raijor Sangbad Guwahati: The Electronic Media Forum Assam (EMFA) has expressed serious concern at the abuse of media space by a registered multilingual bi-weekly newspaper published from Guwahati, where an article with the content of poor-taste and derogatory comments against a senior television reporter of News Live is printed. Dibya Bordoloi, who works for the Guwahati based satellite news channel has made an official complain that Raijor Sangbad (RNI regd no. ASSASS/14644) has published an assonance in its latest issue (April 18, 2012; Vol 7, issue 32), where many disparaging words were put targeting his profession and personal life. After scrutinizing the content of the poetry, the EMFA gets convinced about the use of inappropriate words against one of its esteemed member. Hence the forum has condemned the attitude of the editor/management of the newspaper for its evil design to malign a television journalist and demanded an immediate public apology in a proper platform. The forum also appeals to the public-relation organ of the government to take serious note of misappropriation of media space and avoid patronizing the particular newspaper. _______________________________________________ assam mailing list [email protected] http://assamnet.org/mailman/listinfo/assam_assamnet.org
