Editors’ guild objects to attacks on media
New Delhi : Against the backdrop of attack on media by Arvind Kejriwal and former Army Chief Gen. V.K. Singh, the Editors’ Guild of India on Monday objected to "unsubstantiated charges" levelled by public figures dissatisfied with the coverage of their activities or with criticism.
The Guild appealed to political leaders and public figures not to resort to "vague, unsubstantiated charges of corrupt motives and abuses when refuting, criticising the media and keep the public discourse civil and within reasonsable bounds." The Guild said it is "distressing" to find Gen Singh using "presstitutes" for journalists.
