Chairman of GBP Board of Trustees: I will not leave attacks on Georgian First Channel or attempt to discredit it unanswered. Local, international organizations, diplomatic corps will be informed about specific facts
“I will not leave the attacks on Georgian First Channel or attempt to discredit it unanswered. Local, international organizations and the diplomatic corps will be informed about specific facts,” said Irina Putkaradze, Chairman of the GBP Board of Trustees.
“Unfortunately, an unsubstantiated attack continues on the Public Broadcaster by some politicians in a bid to discredit both the journalists and the broadcaster. Unfortunately, some politicians are not aware of the essence of the public broadcaster. At the same time, unfortunately, they do not or can not read the norms provided by law. Accordingly, I will not leave the attacks on Georgian First Channel or attempt to discredit it unanswered. Local, international organizations and the diplomatic corps will be informed about specific facts. The Public Broadcaster provides information to the population objectively and based on facts, and it cannot become a mouthpiece for either side,” said Irina Putkaradze.
