Citizens Take Action And Organize Propaganda Protest Outside of MEGA Tv



Citizens are taking action against propaganda television. That is why they have organized a protest on Wednesday May 16, 2012 at 20:00 outside the offices of MEGA Channel on Messoghion Avenue. The demostration called "oloimega" (meaning everyone to MEGA) was organized by simple citizens who are frustrated with "controlled journalism" and the position the television channel has maintained on the issue of the Memorandum which clearly is pro-Troika and pro-banks and has never been objective. Also, citizens are very angry at MEGA channel's news department because they claim the station was too pro-government (or more specifically too pro-PASOK) during this crisis and therefore has never allowed alternative voices to be heard but rather supported propaganda or "controlled journalism". Incidentally, even Al Jazeera recently ran a similar video report on this very issue featuring both MEGA Channel and SKAI Tv. (To read that story, click here)
