Domogan cites importance of the Right to Reply Bill on latest mediaman assualt
Posted on | Monday, 13 June 2011 | No Comments
The controversy stemmed from the accusation of the radio broadcaster of the "Radyo ng Bayan" that Baac allegedly hit him with the microphone inside the announcer's booth recently.
On the other hand, the governor denied the accusation alleging that he merely tried to cover the microphone in order that what he and Tabinganay's conversation would not be put on air.
To date, the matter is still being investigated. The Police Regional Office Cordillera (PROCOR) has already provided adequate police security to the DZRK radio station as well as Tabinganay.
Domogan explained that the proposed measure calls on the writer or broadcaster to present both sides of the controversy in order that there would be balanced presentation of any issue.
"Members of the media should follow this principle. On the other hand, I appeal to my co-officials in the government to exercise restraint in what they do, as we are all expected not to be onion-skinned," he said. (PNA) DCT/AAG
